Comcast to Deploy Thomson Home Gateways

Comcast will bring to the U.S. market Thomson’s next-generation broadband Internet and digital communications services with Advanced Cable Gateways devices.

The platform allows Comcast to provide state-of the art digital voice and data services to its customers – including using enhanced cordless telephone handsets to view e-mail, manage voice mail, read news, weather, and sports, and to click-to-call from a universal address book powered by Plaxo, business directory, or call logs.

Comcast and Thomson expect to start deploying the Advanced Cable Gateway in the third quarter of 2009.

As a long-term supplier, Thomson also provides Comcast with a variety of residential broadband products including data and VoIP cable modems.
