Lights, Connectivity, Action!
Etherlive and AcePlant release the Ecolite P Plus tower light with
embedded communications and security technology.
Etherlive, in partnership with Ace Plant, launched the brand new Ecolite P Plus at the 2009 Showman’s Show. This new tower light comes ready to illuminate any event with integrated CCTV, public address and Wi-Fi connectivity, all in one eco friendly unit!
The Ecolite P Plus has been created in collaboration with TCP. Based on the latest Ecolite tower light it includes many features which will help site managers reduce costs and their environmental footprint whilst benefiting from technology such as wireless internet and CCTV coverage.
“With the addition of industrial Wi-Fi the unit automatically meshes back to existing Etherlive wireless networks in the area, providing secure internet access, CCTV video and public announcements” said Tom McInerney, Sales Director with Etherlive “The additional communications and monitoring capabilities with this tower light are of real benefit to event organisers and will work seamlessly with events which already benefit from an Etherlive network on site.”
“The Ecolite P Plus includes all the advantages of the Ecolite family of tower lights which include advanced high efficiency, low glare, ceramic discharge lamps which make the bulbs 85% more efficient than traditional tower lights.” says Alan White director at ACE Plant. “The unit has been designed with a pallet size footprint which uses over 50% less space during transport than conventional tower lights (20 on a standard lorry) but still includes a hydraulic 9.1m mast using biodegradable fluids which can withstand 100 kph winds.”
With multiple power options, including seven day generator and hot swap
battery; lighting, communications and security systems such as the
pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) CCTV camera will continue to operate regardless of the
external power environment.
The communications capabilities of the EcoLite P Plus includes industrial Wi-Fi and wired network access which can deliver VoIP services and other network access as required. Public address announcements are sent to the unit from a central point and broadcast using the built-in speakers.
