Wi-SUN Mesh Network spanning

15,000 luminaires

Major benefits

• Enables real-time remote management

• Reduces electrical energy usage

• Automatically generates maintenance service orders

• Provides a city-wide mesh network for

▸ Utilities

▸ Safety

▸ Parking

How is Wi-SUN helping?

• Future proof system (lasts for the next 30-40 years) that

can scale as the city converts old infrastructure to new

• Provides real time On/Off and Brightness control

• Provides Lux output readings and current consumption

• Provides safe, well illuminated environment for citizensThe network features 12 gateways, using Wi-SUN’s self-forming

and self-healing mesh functions to add devices to the network, as

well as UrbanControl’s software-based security offerings to comply

with the City’s stringent requirements.

Using Wi-SUN mesh pulls together three main

streams of thought: lighting for people,

sustainability and the future - City of London
