The agreement allows Primus to offer broadband services to all its SMB customers, including those without access to landline broadband, such as cable and DSL, in their areas.

Saradhi Vajja, vice president of product management and chief information officer at Primus, said: Through this agreement with Hughes, Primus can now provide an alternative solution for customers who don’t currently have broadband access. We now can provide broadband access to a larger market.
