Clever operates its own MPLS network which interconnects to all major carriers and its focus is on providing end to end managed services for business with service level agreements offering 99. 9 percent uptime guarantees. Carter said there was a real gap in the market for businesses wanting symmetrical services in the 2-10Mbps range. "DSL pretty much runs out at 2-4Mbps." He added "Our network has the capability for higher speeds but we don't see the demand at present. Clever presently operates its own wireless networks in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane using class-licensed spectrum and is planning to have a network operating in Perth in the second half of 2008. It also resells Optus and AAPT's DSL services and is planning to offer HSDPA. Carter said that the company had no interference problems using non-exclusive spectrum but to ensure it was able to meet its SLA commitments used fibre or copper ethernet links for backhaul from its wires base stations, with wireless backhaul used only for backup. Carter said: "We expect to have HSDPA available in the second half of the year - our focus will be to deliver it as part of a managed network product so they will have security etc." He would not name the supplier but noted that Optus is the largest provider of wholesale HSDPA services.
