Tondo Advantages
ADVANCED SMART LIGHTING CONTROL
Dusk-to-Dawn lighting control provides most of its lighting when it isn’t necessary, wasting enormous amounts of energy and increasing sky-glow that interferes with human and animal health.
Tondo’s Adaptive Smart Lighting automates the delivery of standards-compliant lighting levels based on best practices.
Adaptive Lighting can help reduce the operating costs of LED street and area lighting by as much as 70%, while reducing the impact of lighting on our health and ecosystems.

FROM LIGHT POLES … TO SMART POLES
Smart Cities depend on an array of connected sensors and devices to collect data, automate operations, and support management decisions. With increasing urbanization, cities need to reduce their costs of scale.
Tondo’s secure, city-wide Smart Lighting-enabled network provides a standardized platform for sensors and devices that enable Smart City operating efficiencies.
Tondo’s Smart Lighting network turns common light poles into Smart City digital assets.
UNIFIED VIEW AND CONTROL
Tondo’s Cloud-IQ Central Management System (CMS) combines the world’s most advanced Smart City platform with Deep Learning AI for managing all lighting, sensors, and connected assets on the Tondo Smart network.
Cloud-IQ allows you to monitor, configure, and provide secure software updates to Tondo Edge-IQ and Cabinet-IQ controllers, and other sensors and devices connected to the network.
Cloud-IQ provides robust reporting on sensor-collected data, energy usage and quality, anomaly alerts. Cloud-IQ connects easily with CRM systems, third-party analytics, and service delivery applications for fully integrated workflows.
ADVANCED CRYPTOGRAPHIC CYBERSECURITY
When connecting critical infrastructure with digital networks, we have a responsibility to do that securely.
Tondo was the first to deliver street and area lighting controllers with hardware-based cryptographic security, replacing weaker software-based cybersecurity.
Every Tondo Smart Lighting controller is equipped with secure encryption storage, unique rotating encryption keys, and secure encryption and decryption processes that are suitable for protecting critical infrastructure.

EASY AND FAST INSTALLATION
Tondo’s plug-and-play commissioning securely and automatically configures the lighting and network controllers in a few seconds.
Tondo’s automatic configuration eliminates the need for extensive training for installers, and provides significantly lower project deployment costs and risk.
With DALI-2 and DALI D4i compliant fixtures, Tondo supports DALI’s enhanced asset management features that automatically collect information such as manufacturer, model, serial number, and more.

OPEN STANDARDS & INTEROPERABILITY
Tondo designs its hardware and software products for interoperability. We support the standards and interoperability specifications to help cities avoid lock-in to proprietary solutions.
With Tondo, you can automate the application of ANSI and IEC roadway lighting standards. Our support of NEMA and Zhaga socket types, and 0-10V and DALI dimming control ensures we will work with all of your light fixtures.
Our choice of CAT-M1 and CAT1 .bis cellular, and Extended Range Bluetooth® as our communications standards make sure you can reliably connect anywhere.
RAPID RETURN AND HIGH ROI
Tondo’s Smart Lighting-enabled Smart City solutions can typically recover their costs in less than seven years and as little as three years, depending on your cost of electricity, your roadway classifications, the type and number of fixtures.
By enforcing ANSI and IEC roadway, area, and parking facility lighting standards, we enable:
- Consistent lighting across your lighting assets
- Roadway adaptive dimming
- Metering-enabled electricity rates
- Extended lamp lifecycles
- Operations and maintenance savings
- Lower costs of Net Zero climate initiatives
Read the details in The Business Case for Smart Roadway and Area Lighting.
RELIABILITY AND DEPENDABILITY
Your Smart Lighting and Smart City network requires high availability “always-on” operation.
We’ve taken great care in designing our products to withstand unexpected shock, vibration, electrical interference, and power anomalies.
We offer a range of warranty options and our Cloud-IQ Central Management System can be deployed on our cloud or yours.
