Unique Capabilities

Branch-to-Branch/Any-to-Any Connectivity

Hughes uses on-board satellite routing technology to enable branchto-branch/dish-to-dish connectivity. Each location with its own small satellite terminal is directly connected to all other branches via a single satellite hop for superior performance. This “mesh” any-to-any connectivity eliminates the need for an expensive central hub or network operations infrastructure, as well as landline connections. HughesNet lets you build an easy-to-deploy private network that doesn’t touch the Internet.

The Private Network and satellite sends data and allocates bandwidth when and where the business needs it.

Bandwidth-on-Demand

Hughes provides a unique bandwidth-on-demand capability designed to support Constant Bit Rate (CBR) applications such as voice, video surveillance, and new high-definition telepresence applications for true “life-like” face-to-face meetings which eliminate expensive business travel. Pay only for the bandwidth you use, when and where you need it.

Class of Service (CoS)

HughesNet provides multilevel prioritization so that your business applications are prioritized for the best performance possible, endto-end, across the network.

HughesNet offers up to three levels of application priority.

• Video and Voice applications—HughesNet supports a CBR setting when jitter and dropped packets cannot be tolerated.
  
• Mission-critical applications are prioritized to ensure that they get through all the time, no matter what other traffic is present.
  
• Internet Access—Typical Web surfing and Internet email can run at the normal priority, bandwidth-efficient setting.
  

Private Network Plans

HughesNet Private Networks provide you the utmost in flexibility. You choose a service plan on a per-site basis, depending on the data needs of that site. Plans are designated by upstream speed and can either be provisioned as burstable or dedicated bandwidth. Burstable plans are ideal for branch locations where headquarters typically require dedicated bandwidth to support more traffic volume. All plans can receive downstream up to 8 Mbps.

With speeds up to 2 Mbps upstream and 8 Mbps downstream, your options are virtually unlimited. Be it transaction processing, SCADA, Internet, intranet, video, voice, or all of the above—you can have the plan to support it!

As your business grows, HughesNet can grow with you. Need more bandwidth? Just upgrade your plan. It’s as simple as that.

Overlay Plans

Business Internet Service

Your branch locations may need access to the Internet, but you don’t want the Internet traffic to clog up your private network. Hughes can provide separate access to the Internet, overlaid on top of the core private network D-Plans. See the diagram below.

Now it is easy to add Business Internet (BI Plans) to any site that needs it without impacting your core private network. You size your corporate network accordingly and off-load your Internet traffic. This improves performance and reduces your costs.

On-demand Constant Bit Rate Plans

Hughes has developed on-demand Constant Bit Rate (CBR) plans to support high-quality voice and video applications such as security video and telepresence applications. You pay only for the bandwidth where and when you need it!

The CBR plans deliver on-demand connection set to best meet your business requirements.

Just like the Business Internet service, on-demand Constant Bit Rate (CBR) plans overlay the existing core Private Network and add additional bandwidth on demand only for the time you need it—all on the same equipment that is already there.

Hughes’ innovative approach to taking standard plans and customizing a solution for your business provides the flexibility you need to future-proof your network. HughesNet grows as your business grows.
