Broadband Luminaires
Enabling the Future of Smart City Connectivity
Signify, the world leader in lighting for professionals and consumers, and lighting for the Internet of Things partners with Siklu by Ceragon to offer the connectivity grid of the future transforming the legacy lighting infrastructure into a platform of scalable connectivity with BrightSites Broadband Luminaires.
Expand your city’s broadband without changing your infrastructure
Signify Broadband Luminaires enable the creation of virtual fiber backhaul with Siklu’s Terragraph-certified MultiHaul™ TG multi-gigabit wireless connectivity technology. This solution allows a faster time to market of broadband applications such as 5G Small Cells, IoT applications, Fixed Wireless Access, and much more. Further, it provides scalability to serve the connectivity demand as needed in an aesthetic manner.
Embedding a wireless gigabit network in the lighting fixtures creates a neutral host network to branch out from your fiber point-of-presence to the full granularity of the lighting grid. With a self-organizing gigabit network and license free spectrum, installation and commissioning are seamlessly simple. With this, the lighting infrastructure is ideally positioned to provide the Grid of the Future.
Part of BrightSites solution, the Broadband Luminaires integrate Siklu’s Terragraph-certified MultiHaul™ TG multi-gigabit wireless connectivity technology to significantly:
- Reduce the dependency on fiber deployment and enable municipalities to create a wireless mesh network by replacing their luminaires with Broadband luminaires.
- Accelerate city-wide scalability for secure and reliable multi-gigabit wireless connectivity, at a fraction of the cost and time compared to an all-fiber network deployment.
