Telstra Launches First 4G Device

Australia's first 4G/LTE device to launch

08/08/2011

CEO, David Thodey, has announced around 2000 Telstra USB 4G mobile broadband modems would be made available to business and enterprise customers from 29 August ahead of the national launch of 4G services later this year.

We switched on our first 4G base stations, using Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology, in May.

"Telstra's 4G-enabled network is the next generation in mobile broadband and is set to offer Australians an even faster mobile connection," David said.

"The commercial pilot will give some of our customers a taste of the faster speeds, greater capacity and quicker response times that can be available for mobile services on 4G ahead of our national launch in major capital cities and selected regional centres later this year."

"Australian businesses already tell us they want fast, reliable mobile broadband with more than two million customers connecting to our network for internet on the go^[1]. Our investment in next-generation 4G mobile technology will help meet Australia’s growing demand for faster speeds and create additional capacity in our network."

Our first 4G product, the Telstra USB 4G, will use dual mode 4G/3G HSPA technology enabling it to operate across the 1800MHz and 850MHz spectrum bands, giving customers the benefits of 4G connectivity where it is available and switchover to high-speed  HSPA technology across the Telstra Mobile Network which reaches 99 per cent of the Australian population.

The Telstra USB 4G will be available initially to account managed business customers. It can be purchased in conjunction with a range of plans including for $0 upfront on the $49 Telstra Mobile Broadband Standard Plan over 24 months (minimum total cost $1,176) with 7GB included data. It will be available from 29 August through Telstra Business and Telstra Enterprise & Government account managers.

We are taking expressions of interest from customers who would like to be among the first to receive information about the national launch of Telstra's 4G service in Australia. Customers can visit telstra.com/4G.

* 4G/LTE coverage will be available initially within 5km from the GPO in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. Speeds vary due to factors such as distance from base station, local conditions, user numbers, hardware and software configuration.

^[1]Telstra had more than 2.3 million mobile broadband SIOs at the end of March 2011.

Yes, we sell phone systems, and this is an integral part of effeciancy, but where else can you improve your "Productivity"

A few things that come to mind;

1.  Staffing Levels
1.  Are they efficient?
2.  Where can I save them time and improve their "Productivity"
3.  What's their biggest complaint in the Processes, and what have I done to rectify this?
4. How is my Staff Morale, how am I measuring this?
2. Communications
1.  Do I miss calls?
2.  Are you sick of playing "Phone Tag"
3.  How did my last advertising campaign go?
4.  Why can't I find my Sales Reps?

Just a few things that may change the way you think about your business, what are a few things you can think of in YOUR business that could be done better?

Telstra warns Senate on NBN regulation

Consumer advocates have called on the federal government to
rethink plans to privatise the national broadband network (NBN).
The $36 billion project is scheduled to be privatised within
five years of its completion, although parliament would have to approve any
sell-off.
With the rollout expected to take at least another seven
years, the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network is urging the
government to be mindful of creating a private-sector monopoly.
"There are still significant groups in Australia that have
some great concern about the privatisation of public utilities," chief executive
Teresa Corbin told a Senate hearing in Sydney.
The consumer lobby group said privatisation should be
approached with great caution, adding that a private monopoly could become too
politically powerful.
Telco giant Telstra has concerns of a different kind,
arguing too much regulation in the sector could stifle competition.
"Requiring regulation of new broadband networks before they
are even built will create a powerful disincentive to investment in
infrastructure and will discourage competition with NBN Co," Telstra said in a
submission to the Senate inquiry.
Telstra also has called on the government to ban the NBN Co,
the company building the network, from controlling an internet service
provider.
NBN Co would be allowed to control a retailer for up to a
year, but Telstra argues this would breach the government's policy of making it
a wholesaler only.
"There does not appear to be any meaningful justification
for it," Telstra said.
The Senate hearing is continuing at the NSW Parliament House
in Sydney.
Telstra shares closed down 1.44 per cent to $2.73, against a
0.83 per cent fall in the benchmark index.
