Hughes Communications is a provider of satellite-based communications services. The company operates its satellite business through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hughes Network Systems LLC.
In 2011, Hughes was acquired by EchoStar in a deal valued at US$1.3 billion.
Hughes employs 1,900 people worldwide, including 1,200 in Maryland. Other major locations are in India, Nevada and Germany, according to a regulatory filing.
==History==

In 1971, the company Hughes Network Systems was founded as Digital Communication Corp of Rockville, Maryland by eight investors most of whom were alumni of Comsat Laboratories. The group was led by John M. Puente. The first employee was Gene Gabbard. The first contract was a consulting contract for Telesat on a TDMA transmission system via satellite. DCC later went on to build the first commercial TDMA system for Telesat Canada.
DCC was privately held until the late 1970s when it was acquired by Microwave Associates. The combined company name was changed to be M/A-Com. DCC went through a number of name changes and later became M/A-Com Telecommunication Inc. It entered the VSAT market in 1985 supplying VSATs to Schlumberger and a number of other enterprise customers such as Walmart, Holiday Inn, Chrysler, and General Motors.
The M/A-Com Telecommunication was sold to Hughes Aircraft in 1987. Hughes Aircraft Company was then owned by General Motors because it had acquired it in 1985 after the death of Howard Hughes.
By 1996 the Hughes Network Systems division had $1.1 billion in revenue and 2,200 employees. In January 2004, Murdoch's group, News Corp., bought a controlling interest in Hughes Electronics for $6.5 billion, primarily for Hughes's DirecTV satellite television unit.
In 2005, DirecTV Group Inc., the satellite television company owned by Rupert Murdoch, sold the remaining stake in Germantown, Maryland-based Hughes Network Systems Inc. to the holding company of a New York private equity firm for $100 million in cash. Once the deal was complete, Hughes Network Systems became a wholly owned subsidiary of SkyTerra Communications Inc. SkyTerra created the subsidiary Hughes Communications to hold the company Hughes Network Systems.
In 2006 in February, Hughes Communications was spun off as a separate company with SkyTerra divesting its entire stake in the company to its shareholders.
In 2011, EchoStar Corp. agreed to buy parent Hughes Communications of Germantown in a deal worth about $2 billion, comprising stock and debt assumption.
In 2012 on July 5, EchoStar launched their EchoStar XVII satellite.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher= EchoStar )〕 This satellite provided 100 Gbit/s of capacity to their HughesNet product. In Q4 of 2012 HughesNet began offering their Gen4 product.
