Table 2:  Service Availability Service Level Agreement

The Internet Service is considered to be available as long as the connection is up at X% of the time where 'X' is calculated monthly based on the following formula:

X% = 1 - ( A / (30x24x60) ) 

where 'A' is the time in minutes, the service/equipment is not available or functioning. 'A' is based on the fault reports generated by SPTel Case Management. The following are exceptions where non-availability of the service is not included in 'A':

-  Restoration of the service where the sites require SPTel to erect overhead scaffolding or to obtain permission in order to reach the service location

-  SPTel has chosen to withdraw the service in observation of product policies and has duly informed the Customer of the service withdrawal

-  Scheduled maintenance, where SPTel has informed Customer in advance that service will be unavailable

-  The service becomes unavailable due to inadequate utility provision by Customer (E.g. power outage at customer premise)

-  The service becomes unavailable due to 3rd party incidence or other reasons not in SPTel's control.  (E.g. contractor accidentally damages or unplugs equipment) 

-  For Dual Homing service, it will be based on [1+1] circuit availability and not on per circuit basis.

Please refer to the full product specific terms & conditions for details.

[1] The SLA for Dual Homing will be based on [1+1] circuit availability and not on per circuit basis.
