Planet is an intelligent street lighting system which consists of wireless nodes connecting individual lights and a dedicated wireless network. 

The system reduces maintenance costs and turns streetlight poles into hubs for smart city sensors, Telensa says.
 
The Alloy management solution is expected to connect people, systems and assets. It can be scaled across different asset types and integrates with all systems through application programming interfaces, the company adds.
