Gateway for 4G/LTE and LoRa-MESH Smart Street Light – BOSUN
BOSUN® Gateway for Smart Street Lights
The BOSUN® wireless access point gateway in a smart solar street light system acts as a communication bridge between the street lights and the smart city control system. It gathers data from multiple street lights, such as energy usage, lighting performance, operating status, and system health, and transmits this information to the central control system. The gateway enables remote monitoring and control, facilitating functions like dimming, scheduling, and fault detection. Its usage ensures efficient energy management and allows for smart lighting adjustments based on environmental and operational conditions.


Data Monitor
Energy Consumption: Tracks how much energy each street light is using.
Lighting Status: Monitors whether the lights are on, off, or dimmed and adjust brightness.
Fault Detection: Detects issues such as malfunctioning street lights or system errors.
Environmental Conditions: Records data like ambient light levels or weather conditions.
Battery Health: Monitors the charge/discharge status and overall health of solar-powered street lights.
