PSN Group Selects Hughes
JUPITER System for Third Satellite Serving Indonesia
April 12, 2022
Hughes Network Systems, LLC
announced that PT Pasifik Satelit Nusantara (PSN), the
oldest private telecommunication and information service
provider in Indonesia, selected the Hughes JUPITER™
System to enable services on the Nusantara Lima very
high-throughput satellite. Eleven JUPITER gateways will
power 100 Gbps of capacity across Indonesia and nearby
countries to bring internet access to people living
outside the reach of terrestrial broadband.
This award follows PSN's earlier
selection of the JUPITER System for the Satellite of the
Republic of Indonesia (SATRIA), currently under
construction, and the Nusantara Satu satellite (formerly
known as PSN VI), now in service.
"With integrity and reliability,
Hughes has been an essential technology partner to PSN
for many years, helping us turn our ambitions for
connectivity in Indonesia into reality," said Adi Rahman
Adiwoso, Chief Executive Officer at PSN. "We have put
the JUPITER System to the test on several satellites,
transforming satellite signals into efficient and
cost-effective solutions that change people's lives, and
we will do so again with the Nusantara Lima."
"Strong partnerships, like ours
with PSN, are the backbone of our industry, and we
genuinely appreciate the opportunity to earn their
business and their ongoing trust," said Ramesh
Ramaswamy, senior vice president and general manager,
International Division, Hughes. "It is a privilege to
support PSN in their ongoing mission to connect the
unconnected in Indonesia."
In addition to choosing the Hughes
technology as the ground platform for several
satellites, PSN employs JUPITER equipment to light up
Community Wi-Fi hotspots across Indonesia. The JUPITER
System is the next-generation Very Small Aperture
Terminal (VSAT) platform from Hughes, in use at more
than half of all VSAT implementations worldwide. Widely
considered the de facto industry standard, the JUPITER
System enables software-defined satellite networking and
virtualized, cloud-enabled network management for the
highest possible performance and cost efficiencies.
