TelstraClear’s 3G services launched in New Zealand

www.WirelessFederation.com/news: With the plans to triple the number of devices in the market over the next three years, TelstraClear, a unit of Australia’s Telstra Corp, launched a 3G mobile service for its New Zealand business customers.

Mobile services are already provided by the telco to business customers over the CDMA network. However, the new service riding on Vodafone Group Plc’s third-generation network, allows TelstraClear to compete with mobile providers Telecom Corp. of New Zealand, Vodafone’s local unit and 2degrees.

According to TelstraClear’s head of customer experience, mobile revenue in New Zealand has been predicted to grow by around 7% over the next four or five years and TelstraClear will be competitive and aggressive in securing its share of that revenue.
