Comcast awarded a contract to Thomson for VoIP cable modems (eMTAs modems) to support the continued rollout of its Comcast Digital Voice service. As a long-term supplier of data-only cable modems to Comcast, the agreement strengthens Thomson’s relationship with Comcast beyond the current provision of pure cable modems.
Comcast will use Thomson’s DHG535 eMTA to connect its customers to both Comcast Digital Voice and Comcast High-Speed Internet through one integrated device.
Thomson said the contract enables it to further address the worldwide market for eMTAs, which will be worth about EUR 650 million this year alone according to market research firm Dell’Oro.
