Thomson announced an expanded commitment to expand its telecommunications activities for North America. In 2003, Thomson combined its DSL (digital subscriber line), IP Video set top boxes and telecom and residential telephones into a new Thomson Telecom Group. The renewed effort will include a range of DSL, IP Video, VoIP products and telephony products aimed at telco triple play deployments.
During Supercomm, Thomson displayed its SpeedTouch 585 residential wireless gateway, which integrates 802.1 g/a home networking and is compatible with ADSL2 and ADSL2+ standards.
Thomson is the market leader in DSL customer premise equipment in Europe, with nearly 40% share according to the company. http://www.thomson.net
