TOWER.NODE
SMART SPORTS FIELD LIGHTING TOWER, REIMAGINED.
The TOWER.NODE is our reimagining of the sports field lighting tower. Not only does it deliver code compliant sports field lighting, it can also discreetly host macro and micro level telecommunications equipment. Therefore, the TOWER.NODE fully enables better place outcomes by supporting outdoor activity, while delivering enhanced digital connectivity to the local community.
This is why the TOWER.NODE was the winner of two Good Design Awards in 2024 for ‘Engineering Design’ and ‘Product Design’.
OVERVIEW
ABOUT
DESIGN
Sporting fields and similar public open spaces are crucial infrastructure for many land authorities, the potential of which can be truly harnessed with the TOWER.NODE.
Capable of discreetly housing 4G and 5G telecommunications infrastructure, this product delivers enhanced levels of mobile coverage as well as integrating a range of digital devices and IoT with customisable applications for communications, safety, energy and more. When telecommunications equipment is hosted at the top of the TOWER.NODE, it can be shrouded with the custom membrane enclosure or remain open. And in the base of the tower, a purpose-designed ‘base zone’ which houses the necessary equipment to power and activate the antenna’s, along with any other hardware required to operate additional IOT devices, such as CCTV, public address system, wayfinding and environmental sensing.
Given this unique base zone design it removes the need for mobile network operators to build additional supporting infrastructure, such as telecommunication huts, which preserves the surrounding spaces for public use and benefit.
