About
The Hughes JUPITER™ System is a market-leading, high-performance, and field-proven satellite networking solution specifically designed for cellular satellite backhaul. It enables Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to expand their markets and add new subscribers by offering cellular services in areas where traditional terrestrial means (fiber, cable, microwave) are impossible or prohibitively expensive to reach. The system backhauls all generations of cellular technologies, including 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G traffic across hundreds of sites. It is particularly suited for ex-urban and semi-rural areas where terrestrial infrastructure is not readily available. The JUPITER System can be rapidly deployed virtually anywhere in the world and can also serve as a backup to urban terrestrial links or for rural sites with multiple microwave hops, providing high network availability. Key advantages include high performance with 200 Mbps+ throughput per terminal with acceleration, high efficiency with integrated 4G/LTE optimization saving up to 60% of satellite bandwidth, and powerful features such as 4G/LTE acceleration, IEEE 1588v2 timing, and built-in GPS. Advanced enhancements include 600 millisecond latency, 10-millisecond jitter, outdoor packaging, and lower power consumption.
