Latin American satellite firm Axesat has selected Hughes Network Systems to deliver satellite connectivity to enterprise customers throughout Colombia.
The Ka-band service will be delivered using capacity on the Hughes 63 West satellite, which provides coverage across 96% of the population of Colombia.
“At Axesat, we focus on serving companies in locations where terrestrial infrastructure is not available,” said Mauricio Segovia, chief executive officer, Axesat. “With Hughes Ka-band service, we will offer these customers better performance, pricing and flexibility to go with the Axesat managed services that today’s distributed businesses need to make the most of their networks.”
Along with Hughes satellite connectivity, Axesat offers enterprise customers a suite of managed network services to make the most of their multisite networks. In addition to selling enterprise service plans from Hughes in Colombia, Axesat is also an authorised reseller of HughesNet satellite Internet service for consumers and small businesses in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Chile.
