Recap of December 13 th Presentation Review data use case 1 CREATE vibrant, well-managed public space for communities that we have field tested Discuss future data use REDUCE congestion and create safe streets 2 cases possible in Quayside (Illustrative examples for discussion) REDUCE energy use in homes and offices 3 Collect & Manage Water More Effectively 4 2
Today: Digital Components that Support Multiple Use Cases Neighbourhood-Scale Software-Defined Network NETWORKING ● Personal private networks ● Higher security ● Better management Super Passive Optical Network ● Higher-capacity, more efficient fiber use ● Easier upgradability HARDWARE Koala ™ : Standard Outdoor Mounts with Power & Connectivity ● Reduce time, cost and disruption of deployment ● Increase rate of innovation Open Data in Standard Formats via Standard Interfaces SOFTWARE ● Enable innovation (for next time) ● Significantly reduce vendor lock-in 3
Where We Are Today We are early in our overall product development cycle. This work reflects the most current perspective from our team. We will continue to refine as we learn from customers and initiate pilots. Throughout our development process, we will be committed to the responsible use of data, such as privacy by design principles, even as we consult on a broader data governance policy for Quayside, such as our proposal for an independent Civic Data Trust. The ideas we are describing will use published standards. We will be engaging partners with whom we hope to develop and deploy these ideas and ecosystems. 4

Quick Aside: Ownership The first two sections address fiber infrastructure and network topology. We plan to work with existing providers to introduce these new technologies and build on the work done to date by Waterfront Toronto. As with all digital infrastructure, residents and businesses would not be required to use these solutions. 10
Challenges for Neighbourhood-Wide Connectivity Deploying fiber, connections inside Fiber Router Home Routers Security Risks buildings, provisioning residential or business internet connections, and dealing with home routers is very expensive, and often insecure. The technologies proposed hope to alleviate some of these problems. 11
