Griesheim - Dec 03, 2003 Hughes Network Systems, Inc. (HNS), the world's leading provider of broadband satellite solutions, today introduced the latest member of its family of Direcway broadband terminals, the DW6000, to the European market. The DW6000 is self-hosting, thereby eliminating the requirement to install any special software on customers' computers and extending Direcway service to Apple Macintosh computers, beyond Windows-based systems. The DW6000 incorporates an advanced, single-board architecture, offering an Ethernet output for easy connection to LAN networks and satellite-based service activation, which eliminates the need for a terrestrial line. In addition to high-speed Internet and intranet/VPN access, it supports all of the feature-rich Direcway services offered to current customers, such as content delivery, multicasting, music distribution, digital media streaming, and distance learning and training. "With the addition of the DW6000 to our product portfolio, we now can provide our enterprise customers, value-added resellers, and service providers, an easy networking solution to connect multiple computers to broadband access via satellite," said Michael Darcy, President of Hughes Network Systems Europe. "The DW6000 is robust, compact and affordable for all customer segments from large corporations to the SME and SOHO markets." Beginning in December 2003, the DW6000 will be available in Europe and sold to enterprise customers through HNS Europe's regional sales offices and from authorized value-added resellers and service providers.
