-- Sistema HX habilitará el servicio de internet de alta velocidad en escuelas y comunidades

GERMANTOWN, Maryland, 20 de mayo de 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Hughes Network Systems, LLC (Hughes), líder mundial en soluciones y servicios satelitales de banda ancha, anunció hoy que ganó un contrato para un sistema satelital de banda ancha HX y terminales con HISPASAT Colombia, subsidiaria de la operadora satelital española HISPASAT, para habilitar la entrega de servicios de internet satelital de alta velocidad como parte del programa Vive Digital del Ministerio de Tecnologías de la Información y las Comunicaciones (MinTIC) de Colombia. Se trata del más reciente de una serie de contratos gubernamentales para ayudar a cerrar la brecha digital en siete regiones marginadas del país.

"HISPASAT eligió a Hughes por la amplia cobertura y las capacidades avanzadas de los sistemas satelitales de banda ancha de Hughes", dijo Sergio Chaves, director de negocios para Sudamérica de HISPASAT. "Está creciendo la demanda de servicios satelitales de banda ancha para posibles millones de hogares que no podrán ser atendidos por las redes terrestres en el corto plazo. El liderazgo mercantil y la tecnología avanzada de Hughes, así como su trayectoria de servicios confiables fueron la clave de la decisión para nuestra alianza".

Hughes proporciona su sistema HX líder del mercado que incluye un puerto económico y terminales de banda ancha de alto desempeño para aproximadamente 650 kioscos Vive Digital (KVD) en un región de servicio HISPASAT en Colombia. HISPASAT, que ha formado un consorcio con NEC Colombia para el programa, instalará y operará el sistema como servicio gestionado para el MinTIC.

"Estamos ayudando a mejorar vidas a través de las ventajas de internet", dijo Hugo Frega, director principal de ventas de Hughes para América Latina. "HISPASAT ayuda a Colombia a dar el gran salto tecnológico con esta importante iniciativa nacional que se traducirá en oportunidades para las masas, y Hughes se enorgullece al haber sido elegido como proveedor de tecnología".

Optimizado para redes de banda ancha IP de grado operadora, el sistema HX ha demostrado ser, en muchos países, la opción ideal para programas de brecha digital como Vive Digital. El consorcio HISPASAT/NEC Colombia es una de las diversas operadoras contratadas para entregar y gestionar los KVD dentro del proyecto de $283,71 millones. El MinTIC espera que en agosto de 2014 haya un total de 6.648 sitios operando en zonas remotas de Colombia.

Acerca de HISPASAT
El grupo HISPASAT está conformado por empresas con presencia en España y en América Latina, donde su filial brasileña HISPAMAR opera la flota de satélites Amazonas. El grupo es líder en la transmisión y distribución de contenidos en español y portugués, incluida la transmisión de importantes plataformas digitales Direct to Home (DTH) y televisión de alta definición. HISPASAT es una de las empresas más importantes en su sector en el mundo por sus ingresos y el principal puente comunicativo entre Europa y América.
