Annual Availability for the network are divided into two levels based on the nature of the faults as per below:

Major faults: faults that cause a service disruption and the Subscribers service is unusable.

Minor faults: faults that cause service impairment in the quality of Subscriber’s service. With minor faults the Subscriber’s service remains connected, operational and usable but is not performing within the agreed quality parameters.

Availability

Unavailable time is calculated as the longer of the following periods:

  • From the time when a critical or serious fault is reported to OPEN FIBRE to the time when the fault is corrected; or
  • From the time when OPEN FIBRE network monitoring detected a critical or serious fault to the time the fault is corrected
  • A Service outage caused by the INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER or SUBSCRIBER, and outages caused by a FORCE MAJEURE EVENT is not considered unavailable time.
  • Should OPEN FIBRE not be able to access the premises this time lost will be deducted from the outage time.
