Well Cyberlux's comments released today pretty much answered your question.

Cyberlux Corporation is one of two lighting companies within the SBInet Toolkit supplier base with the responsibility for providing lighting capability for the SBInet Mobile Infrastructure solutions for the Custom and Border Patrol (CBP). Specifically, Cyberlux is supplying its BrightEye technology for use in the Portable 10 Meter Tower platform and in the fulfillment of any other tactical lighting requirement associated with Mobile Infrastructure. Cyberlux is not involved with the Virtual Fence proof-of-concept, and any delays associated with the Virtual Fence are not anticipated to affect the Cyberlux involvement within the SBInet project," said Mark Schmidt, president of Cyberlux.

From Aherns statement:
"For example, CBP currently has 4 Mobile Surveillance Systems (MSS) in operation and plans to deploy an additional 36 MSS this year to the southwest border to serve as primary detection platforms. While some MSS will eventually be replaced by a more cost-effective, integrated radar/camera tower under SBInet, the highly mobile MSS units can be used to “fill gaps” of surveillance coverage, temporarily replace a sensor tower down for maintenance, or rapidly deploy to a “hot” area needing extra coverage."

“Through SBInet, CBP will field an effective, integrated mix of proven technology (radars, communication devices, cameras, sensors, and other equipment), infrastructure (vehicle and pedestrian fence, lighting, and all-weather roads), and response platforms.

So as you can see the lighting is grouped with the infrastructure portion which seems to be more in line with the physical (vehicle/pedestrian) fence and possibly the MSS units. I'm not sure if the MSS units use our lights but it would be nice since they're adding an additional 36 units.
