How Triciti Helps Cities Deploy Smart Infrastructure Faster, Cleaner, and Future-Ready
Cities worldwide face mounting pressure to modernize urban infrastructure while controlling CAPEX/OPEX, ensuring regulatory compliance, and minimizing visual clutter. Traditional approaches—retrofitting legacy poles, installing standalone cabinets, or deploying single-purpose masts—no longer scale.
Triciti introduces a new category of urban ICT hardware: a modular, track-based smart pole system capable of hosting dozens of city services on a single, clean, maintainable vertical structure.
Designed for rapid deployment, multi-department operation, and future expansion, Triciti helps cities roll out security, connectivity, mobility, environmental, and public-engagement technologies faster, cleaner, and at significantly reduced lifetime cost.

Why Smart Infrastructure Needs a Rethink
Modern cities operate dozens of digital and physical services:
• CCTV and video analytics
• Telecom and 5G/IoT networks
• Traffic management and pedestrian safety
• Public Wi-Fi and communication systems
• Environmental monitoring
• Emergency warning
• Mobility and EV charging
• Digital navigation and media
Yet these functions usually grow organically, not systematically. The result is familiar: cluttered streetscapes, messy retrofits, inconsistent standards, maintenance conflicts, and rising operational costs.
Cities need a new baseline infrastructure:
• compatible with multi-vendor equipment,
• easy to maintain by multiple agencies,
• scalable for the next decades of urban technology,
• aesthetically aligned with public-realm design goals.
Triciti was engineered precisely for this shift.

Current Challenges for City Administrations
1. Visual Clutter and Fragmented Deployments
New devices are often added to poles by drilling, welding, or bolting non-standard brackets.
This leads to:
• messy aesthetics,
• reduced safety,
• faster structural degradation,
• difficulty adding future devices.
2. High CAPEX and OPEX Due to Retrofits
Retrofitting legacy poles requires:
• custom brackets,
• on-site modifications,
• manual alignment of multiple devices,
• repeat visits for upgrades.
This inflates both initial CAPEX and long-term OPEX.
3. Interoperability and Vendor Lock-In
Many “smart poles” on the market support only specific modules or a narrow ecosystem.
Cities end up tied to one vendor or limited functionality.
4. Regulatory and Departmental Complexity
Urban assets involve multiple agencies—lighting, telecom, emergency services, traffic, etc.
A single compartment causes:
• access conflicts,
• accidental disconnections,
• difficulty tracking responsibilities.
5. Future Uncertainty
Cities must adopt:
• 5G small cells,
• AI-based pedestrian safety,
• EV charging,
• environmental sensors,
• digital signage,
• IoT connectivity.
But legacy infrastructure cannot accommodate these additions without rebuilding.

The Triciti Solution: A Modular, Track-Based Urban Infrastructure System
Triciti smart poles use a three-sided vertical aluminum track allowing devices to mount anywhere—without drilling, welding, or custom fabrication.
Benefits:
• ultra-fast installation and retrofitting
• unlimited multi-vendor device compatibility
• clean urban aesthetic
• precise device positioning (any height, any configuration)
• reduced lifetime maintenance costs
• isolated internal compartments for different departments
• scalable geometry (light, reinforced, decorative profiles)
Engineering Features That Enable Fast Deployment
Modular Track-Based Architecture
Each pole is built around a triangular extruded aluminum profile with integrated slots.
Devices attach via standardized adapters — simple, fast, and durable.
No need to disassemble the whole mast to add a new function.
Multi-Vendor Compatibility
Supports:
• CCTV & video analytics
• telecom radios (4G, 5G, Wi-Fi)
• environmental sensors
• public Wi-Fi
• emergency speakers
• advertisement & navigation screens
• lighting & floodlights
• IoT gateways
• traffic & pedestrian safety devices
• EV charging modules
• benches, shading, and urban furniture
Isolated Compartments for Multi-Agency Governance
Triciti poles include separate, lockable internal sections, ensuring:
• lighting agency access is isolated from telecom equipment
• emergency systems remain protected
• IT departments can service equipment without interfering with others
This mirrors best-practice requirements from Moscow’s “smart pole” program and other global standards.
High Load Capacity & Structural Integrity
• supports up to 200 kg per bracket
• compatible with large-diameter conduit (up to 6 PND tubes)
• wind-load-ready reinforced profiles available
• flanged base for reliable foundation integration
Rapid Manufacturing & Local Production
Aluminum extrusion allows:
• scalable production,
• multiple profile formats (light, reinforced, decorative),
• custom architectural variations while preserving the track logic.
