Satellite Internet
noun
/ˈsætəlaɪt/ ĭnʹtərnĕt' /
Satellite Internet is a fast, secure way to connect. Your business computer or mobile device requests a Web page by sending a signal to our satellite 22,000 miles away. Our satellite then contacts the Hughes Network Operations Center (NOC) to locate the specific Webpage requested. Finally, the website beams the information back to the NOC and then to your HughesNet® dish and modem.
