Germantown MD (SPX) Nov 03, 2005 Hughes Network Systems announced Wednesday that SES Americom fully endorses HNS' DW7000 satellite broadband platform and the Internet Protocol over Satellite (IPoS) standard upon which it is based. SES Americom is the latest organization to endorse IPoS as a global standard. Orlando Skelton, vice president of North American enterprise solutions for SES Americom, said, "SES Americom is constantly searching for technologies that provide high value to our customers and their end users. When HNS introduced its new DW7000 platform, we were immediately impressed with its acceptance by enterprises and consumers in the marketplace." "DirecWay technology has consistently led the satellite broadband market in terms of performance, reliability and economy," said HNS Chairman and CEO, Pradman Kaul. "We are extremely pleased to add SES Americom's endorsement of IPoS and our DW7000 platform. The IPoS standard is the only two-way satellite air interface recognized by the ITU, TIA, ETSI, Intelsat, and now SES Americom." The DW7000 family of broadband satellite routers consists of two initial offerings: the DW7700 for high-performance enterprise and government requirements, and the DW7000 for small business and consumer customers. The product line is ideally suited for organizations that require ubiquitous broadband coverage and always-on Internet connections, and that use bandwidth- intensive applications ranging from two-way video to large data files attached to e-mails. The IPoS standard is used by the DW7000 family of satellite routers to achieve high bandwidth efficiency, low latency and high quality of service. In addition, the DW7000 family of satellite routers integrates a powerful processor and ample memory, allowing the platform not only to accelerate user data, but also to provide a full set of IP routing features. The result is a platform able to support more than 35 simultaneous accelerated TCP sessions, more than 45 Mbps of multicast traffic, over 10 Mbps of UDP throughput, and more than 2 Mbps of accelerated HTTP throughput.
