The press hails TETRADIS’s innovation in support of the Smart City

The digital transformation of local areas is gathering pace, and local authorities are seeking solutions that are reliable, quick to deploy and tailored to the constraints on the ground. Against this backdrop, several magazines have recently highlighted the innovations developed by TETRADIS centred on its VPU (Urban Video Surveillance) and IoT kits, designed to support the development of smart cities. Drawing on its recognised expertise in network infrastructure and telecommunications, TETRADIS offers turnkey solutions that address the growing challenges of connectivity, security and data management within local authorities.

Ready-to-use packages to speed up local authority projects

Designed to simplify the deployment of connected devices, TETRADIS’s VPU and IoT enclosures are delivered pre-fitted, pre-wired and fully tested before dispatch. This approach significantly reduces on-site installation times whilst ensuring a high level of reliability. These solutions are suitable for a wide range of Smart City applications:

• Urban and road CCTV;
• IoT networks and communication gateways;
• Remote water meter reading;
• Access control;
• Weather stations and connected sensors.

To meet the realities on the ground, the enclosures are available in various configurations: for installation on a pole, on a street lamp, on a building façade, on a ground-mounted bollard, or even as a waterproof underground version. This modularity enables local authorities and system integrators to rapidly deploy robust infrastructure, whilst ensuring continuity of service. At a time when the number of connected devices is constantly growing and urban applications are becoming increasingly connected, these solutions provide a real catalyst for supporting regional modernisation projects.

An effective solution for remote sites thanks to the PowerBox

The press has also highlighted the benefits of the PowerBox, the off-grid power solution developed by TETRADIS for installations in areas not connected to the electricity grid. Based on a photovoltaic power supply combined with an integrated energy storage system, the PowerBox ensures the continuous operation of even the most power-hungry connected equipment. For each project, the design office carries out a sizing study to optimise performance in line with the site conditions.

This approach ensures a very high level of equipment availability whilst offering local authorities a sustainable and cost-effective alternative for rolling out their connected services in the most challenging areas.

Through this media recognition, TETRADIS reaffirms its ability to support public sector organisations in their Smart City projects by providing innovative, industrial-grade, ready-to-use solutions designed to meet the challenges of connected communities, both today and in the future.
