Cellular IoT Application Distribution An Example: Large & Medium Canadian Enterprises
› Average number of devices deployed per enterprise: 5,220
› 54% of projects used both wireless and wireline connectivity
› Wireless only solutions found in 28% of IoT projects
› Main platform or application deployed internally or on-premise in 72% of cases
› Cloud or hosted solutions are used in 28% of cases
Source: TELUS/IDC Internet of Things Study 2014 (n=209)
Note: The survey is focused on how enterprises are using IoT and excludes many type of IoT deployments related to infrastructure businesses such as electric, water and gas utilities

LPWA Service Provider: Senet
› Network: 150+ Base stations covering ~40,000 sq. miles in the US – 20,000 Semtech LoRa sensors to
track propane and oil tank fuel levels – Monitor cost: $40; monitoring fee:
$2.45 / mo
› Services – Tank monitoring & automation
(propane, heating oil) – Water metering (to come) – Water irrigation (to come)
› Data Aggregation Platform – Scalable Cloud-based server farm – Multiple Platforms for data access
(Web Services/FTP) – Value add applications, metrics
N e t w o r k a s a S e r v i c e
Value proposition: On average, oil delivery drivers visit each customer six times per year. They typically make the delivery runs when the tanks are filled at 50%, which is at a cost per delivery of $50-100. With IoT, they can deliver at 20% capacity, saving two deliveries per customer per year. If they have between 10,000-15,000 tanks, that’s $1-$1.5 million a year in savings.

How the Market Is Shaping Up
11
SRWA: Short range / wide area; peer-to-peer protocols
![Page 12: Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) Overview and Applications · Nascent Market for Wide Area Connectivity Several technologies are vying to capture an emerging wide-area IoT connectivity](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042213/5eb8883374e1d95095484425/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Opportunities for IoT Service Providers
12
• Business Considerations
– Most LPWA connections will generate only minimal connectivity revenue (~$2-$3 / device / year)
– Service providers will want to increase their revenue by providing end-to-end and support solutions in order to maintain their relevance in the value chain
– Strategic importance of data management and analytics services
