What does a Spork have to do with broadband? It's all about efficiency!

One customer wants a spoon. Another customer needs a fork. Yet another customer needs both. For the restaurateur, that means purchasing, inventorying, and offering two different pieces of cutlery in each restaurant. So, in a move to create efficiencies, the Spork was born. The Spork, an ingenious combination of the spoon and the fork packaged in a single utensil, streamlines business tasks by serving multiple needs. It’s all about efficiency—and making people’s jobs easier.

Broadband service, too, comes in different forms. DSL is available in some areas, cable in others. Satellite is available virtually everywhere in a continent-wide footprint. For the IT manager, just keeping track of available broadband options can be a challenge—not to mention the difficulties of dealing with multiple vendors to ensure high-quality nationwide coverage and uniform reliability at all locations.

That’s where Hughes managed services comes in. Hughes now offers a one-stop, end-to-end, managed broadband service, which combines satellite and terrestrial platforms to provide the optimal network to meet a particular company’s business strategy. Hughes managed services combines the best of DSL, satellite, and frame broadband technologies for business applications.

A single enterprise-grade solution, Hughes managed services streamlines network operations, lowers operations costs, and yields access continuity options approaching 100% availability at critical locations.

Whether implemented using DSL, satellite, or a hybrid solution, each network is fully scalable and readily expandable to accommodate business growth and the addition of new applications. Hughes also offers a range of plans to deliver the right package of services for a business to stay on track.

Like the Spork, Hughes managed services pulls together multiple diverse pieces and combines them into a single, efficient alternative—in this case a turnkey networking solution with a single point of contact—to make people’s jobs easier.
