Cost-effective real-time communications
across town, or across the country.

Shared hub services from Hughes Network
Systems: Making Satellite Technology work for your business.

Today, businesses in a wide variety
of industries are relying on VSAT (very small aperture terminal)
satellite networks to help them
communicate with their remote locations
no matter where they are across town, or across the country.

Even for businesses with relatively
small numbers of remote sites, satellite networks can be one of the most
cost-effective ways to obtain efficient, on-line communications.

The central the heart of your network.

VSAT networks rely on a central hub
station to serve as the transfer point between the remote locations, the
satellite, and company headquarters
or data center. The hub contains the necessary uplink/downlink equipment to
transmit signals to and from the satellite.

For many companies, it is not desirable
or feasible to own and operate their own dedicated hub. The solution: shared hub services from
Hughes.Shared Hub Services from Hughes
give you the efficiency of on-line communications at a cost that agrees with your bottom
line.

Hughes Network Systems owns and operates
four full-service satellite hubs located across the country. The hubs operate seven days a
week, 24 hours a day. For a reasonable
monthly fee, you have all the advantages of on-line satellite communications:

Data transmission
Real-time video
Audio transmission
Disaster recovery
Pilot programs for new networks or applications

Using shared hub services means you
avoid the expense of building your own hub and maintaining a technical
staff to run it. You contract for only
the amount of satellite bandwidth that you need on satellites built by the
world's largest satellite manufacturer.
And when your network needs to grow or change, you can count on
Hughes to reconfigure the network quickly with a minimum of expense.

Disaster recovery: being ready for the unexpected.

No one likes to think that a disaster
either natural or could hit the network. But in the event of a hub
failure, whether it's a shared hub
or a hub dedicated to one company's operation, Hughes is ready to put you back
in business.

The Germantown hub provides complete
backup service in the event of disaster. Hughes can bring your network
back up rapidly and will keep it operating
while hub repairs are underway. As soon as the hub is repaired, we
switch you back to normal operation.

Let us show you how Hughes Shared Hub
Services can help you advance the way your business communicates.
