Hughes Network Systems has launched DIRECWAY Wi-Fi Access managed service.
The continent-wide reach of DIRECWAY Wi-Fi Access means that retailers can offer consistent, reliable service to any or all franchisee, or company-owned locations. And HNS provides all equipment, installation, and back-end support services, including customer billing and network management.
"DIRECWAY Wi-Fi Access is a complete, managed hotspot solution that can turn any retail location into an Internet connection destination, encouraging repeat visits, attracting new patrons and extending peak hours," says James Gandolfi, senior vice president and general manager, HNS San Diego. "It's a winning proposition for a business owner to provide customers with convenient broadband Internet access, and opens up the potential for incremental revenue streams via cross-selling and co-advertising with various other content, product and service providers."
The service is available now as an upgrade for existing enterprise customers of HNS' DIRECWAY broadband satellite service, and will be offered through all HNS sales channels, including its directsales team and value-added distributors and resellers.
