GERMANTOWN, Md., Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a Vertical Systems Group market analysis, Hughes Network Systems, LLC (Hughes) ranks third among the United States' top telecommunications providers in the provision of IP VPN services. The results of Vertical Systems' comprehensive assessment of the IP VPN landscape covering over 45 service providers and including both landline and satellite transport systems, show that Hughes has a 17.9 percent share, close to AT&T and Verizon (25.3% and 18.4% respectively) and surpassing traditional telecom heavyweights such as Sprint and Qwest.
