Ligman’s DaVinci Pole Turns Smart‑City Infrastructure into a Design‑First Experience

DaVinci Smart Pole from Ligman Lighting USA at the Lantern Building

Ligman Lighting USA is reshaping how cities deploy technology in public spaces with the launch of the DaVinci Pole, a fully engineered platform that merges lighting, communications and user‑interaction systems into one clean, cohesive structure.

Instead of the familiar “bolt‑on” approach — where cameras, wi‑fi radios, EV chargers and access hardware are strapped to existing poles for convenience — DaVinci Pole provides a purpose‑built internal architecture designed for seamless, reliable integration. This approach eliminates exposed cabling and unsightly “franken-poles” while streamlining installations and reducing costs in the process.

Ligman Smart Pole

Inside, the pole features dedicated conduit pathways, low‑voltage and line‑voltage separation, isolated electronics compartments, and brand‑agnostic mounting provisions. These components can accommodate a wide variety of devices, such as:

  • Security cameras, LPR units and surveillance sensors.
  • Wi‑Fi access points, 5G small‑cell radios and communications hardware.
  • ADA push buttons, intercoms, emergency call stations and badge readers.
  • EV charging modules, speakers and public device‑charging ports.

Integrators can specify a preferred technology brand, and Ligman provides the provisions, thermal‑management considerations and structural accommodations needed to support it. Pole heights, base‑plate or direct‑embed configurations, and load‑rated attachment points are all customizable to project requirements.

Externally, every DaVinci Pole is finished with MicroPRIM, Ligman’s advanced decorative powder‑coat system that supports custom colors, patterns and full‑surface imagery. MicroPRIM also delivers anti‑graffiti protection, UV stability, scratch resistance and natatorium‑rated corrosion performance, ensuring long‑term visual consistency in demanding environments.

For contractors and designers, the value is straightforward: faster installation, fewer field modifications, reduced coordination between trades and a dramatically cleaner streetscape. Backed by Ligman’s 10‑year structural and finish warranty, DaVinci Pole offers a future‑ready, design‑forward solution for cities, campuses, and developers.
