  Interesting, I'm curious if it's just that brand ( https://www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/lighting-for-industry/fsa/fsa-products/#!/Autobahn-ATB0-ATB2/p/79936518/category=0 https://www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/lighting-for-indus... )or other designs like it. My street has a very similar design, I wonder if it's compatible with what you're saying, maybe just not certified.
