Cast your mind back to when the internet wasn’t a feature of our every waking moment. If you’re not in the tech business, you’ll only need to go back 20 years or so to get a clear picture of the impact technology has had on our daily lives. Smart devices now populate every corner of our homes, from monitoring the energy we use to controlling heating, lighting, security and of course, entertainment. Although there may be downsides to the continuing advances of technology, benefits such as time and energy saving can’t be denied. But the need for smart technology doesn’t end at the front door. With over 50% of the world’s population living in cities - a number which is only set to grow - the need for smart technology outside of the home has never been greater. Smart city networks are fast gaining in popularity. Smart road management takes the guesswork out of keeping the traffic moving. High-tech security cameras help to keep the streets safe and state-of-the-art monitoring helps councils monitor and promote more efficient use of resources. Some cities are even providing free Wi-Fi for visitors to commercial centres. Of course, providing internet connectivity outdoors comes with its own set of specific challenges. Despite extreme weather conditions, our expectations of infrastructure services remain the same. This means the technology needed to power smart cities has to be robust and secure, resilient to dust, water, extremes of cold and heat, and easy to maintain. That’s where the San Jose company, Inscape Data Corporation, steps in. Inscape Data manufactures and sells PoE switch solutions built to withstand the rigours of outdoor installation. Starting with a single product, the LinkPower™ IP68 Outdoor PoE switch, the company has evolved a range of products including LinkPower™ IP68 Outdoor Injectors and LinkPower™ Standard PoE to Passive PoE/D.C. converters. Having deployed its solutions in both North America and Europe, Inscape Data’s products are versatile and easy to use. Powering devices from as low as 5V up to 52V DC using standard RJ45 jacks, the company’s solutions power a diverse range of applications including infrared cameras for video surveillance, Wi-Fi radios and smart grid sensors. Remote control of power settings ensures the complete reliability and security of each system. Chief Technology Officer, David Lin, explains, “The flexibility and wide range of network power options we offer make Inscape Data an attractive and cost-effective answer for smart city network needs.

Demonstrated in the extreme during Hurricane Irma, Inscape Data’s LinkPower™ LPS3800ATM-T1 Outdoor PoE Switches, installed in the Mega Yacht Marina in Miami, endured violent storms to provide essential network services to users. In New Orleans, the company tackled another challenging environment when it collaborated with H&R Operator Services to revamp the networks for student housing at the University of New Orleans. To resist the climate and vandalism, the kit needed to be rugged and resilient. It also had to be future-proof by allowing for additions and, of course, on budget - and the team delivered.
