dishing up a bigger pool of players

Germantown - Mar 11, 2004
Hughes Network Systems has won three new contracts valued in excess of $34 million from GTECH Corporation, a provider of transaction processing systems and services to the lottery industry.

Under the terms of the contracts, HNS will deliver and install two new DIRECWAY hubs, one located in Austin, Texas and the other in West Greenwich, Rhode Island, plus supply 12,000 additional DW4020 satellite terminals, along with associated hub and satellite services.

The DW4020 terminal provides enterprise customers with a fast, always-on broadband connection. It operates as a self-hosted system, eliminating the need for a dedicated host PC and enables a local Ethernet network of computers, yielding overall greater network power and reliability.

"Our customers require maximum reliability, security, and transaction speed. We rely on DIRECWAY to meet those needs," said Tom Caffrey, GTECH vice president of technology. "Its broadband performance and scalability allows us to offer additional services in the future."

"For companies such as GTECH, DIRECWAY provides a reliable and secure solution. We are proud that GTECH has again selected HNS as its chosen supplier," said Estil Hoversten, senior vice president, North American Division at Hughes Network Systems.
