HughesNet Offering Combines Best of Terrestrial and Satellite Broadband Technologies, Delivering Enterprises Affordable, High Availability at Each Network Location
Germantown, Md., April 10, 2006—Hughes Network Systems, LLC (HUGHES), the global leader in broadband satellite network solutions and services, today announced its HughesNet™ High Availability Networks, the first new offering under the company’s recently announced HughesNet Managed Network Services. Designed to meet the increasing demand of many enterprises for higher levels of availability, HughesNet High Availability Networks is an affordable service that provides a highly reliable, enterprise-wide broadband network that frees IT executives to focus on the provision of applications to support internal core business processes.
HughesNet High Availability Networks is an innovative network solution to help enterprises remain competitive in today’s marketplace. The new offering delivers both terrestrial and satellite connectivity at each network location at prices below a typical frame relay network. This unique, completely integrated approach to high availability networks is fully managed by Hughes and yields an availability of better than four 9’s, backed by service level agreements (SLAs).
Unlike traditional high availability offerings that provide a single primary network with a secondary network overlay only used for back-up, HughesNet High Availability Networks deliver co-primary connectivity with two completely diverse paths—one terrestrial and one satellite—at each network location. During a service disruption on either path, application traffic is automatically re-routed to ensure customers and employees are not affected.
“HughesNet High Availability Networks reduces the cost of a reliable, enterprise-wide broadband network. It is designed to help customers achieve maximum up-time at an affordable price, while at the same time providing high aggregate capacity allowing growth for the future applications necessary for the development of the business,” said Mike Cook senior vice president, Hughes. “This new offering allows our customers to focus on the development of their business while we look after their network.”
