iEPF-9000S Rugged Edge AIoT Platform Powers the 5G Smart Poles

Today there are approximately 360 million street lamps in the world, of which only 2% (7.2 million) are smart poles, leading to an incredible potential for large-scale transformation. ASRock Industrial is committed to delivering edge computing solutions, delivering effective results through instant processing close to data collection sources, and reducing overall latency. The robust AIoT platform of the iEPF-9000S series powers smart poles for more intelligent and safer cities. With a security sandbox running on VM for trusted edge computing capabilities, the Robust Edge AIoT Platform functions as an edge computing server for AI smart traffic enforcement and smart pole information security.


Navigant Consulting estimates that more than 90 million smart poles will be installed worldwide by 2028, worth USD 7 billion at a CAGR of 28.5%. “Given the current trend of smart pool transition, we see great opportunities for all stakeholders in business and the intelligent future of smart city development,” said James Lee, President of ASRock Industrial. “It is a great honor for ASRock Industrial to play a role in the 5G Smart Pole Standard Promotion Alliance and jointly deploy 5G Smart Poles with the iEPF-9000S Robust Edge AIoT Platform.
