La Quinta, The United States

Signify has revolutionized the skatepark experience by delivering wireless network coverage through outdoor lighting infrastructure. Unlike traditional fiber optics, the BrightSites solution provides broadband connectivity without invasive, expensive digging.

“The performance test conducted on Signify's wireless broadband technology at the La Quinta X-Park was a resounding success.

It was very impressive with a simple 1Gig Connection, and we’re liking how walking around the park resulted in no drop in connectivity nor quality. The seamless connectivity and high-quality streaming were truly impressive, demonstrating the ability to scale moving forward as we plan for major events."

Doug Kinley III, City of La Quinta
