Ka-band by HughesNet
 The Ka-band service, powered by HughesNet, uses a "spot beam" approach to deliver satellite broadband access. In Canada, HughesNet uses regional spot beams to provide national broadband coverage. The benefit of using spot beams is a more concentrated signal, which results in smaller dish sizes and affordable service package pricing for the end user.
The Ka-band service provides various service packages and pricing to meet your home and business Internet needs.
Equipment
In order to receive the Ka-band service powered by HughesNet, the customer must have an outdoor unit (ODU) - a 74 cm or 98 cm satellite dish - located somewhere on the premises, as well as an indoor unit (IDU) - satellite modem - which is connected to the customer's computer.
