Thomson signs purchase agreement with Comcast

Thomson, a provider of video solutions, has signed a purchase agreement with Comcast, a provider of cable and entertainment services, to be a supplier of digital-to-analog adapters.

The digital-to-analog (DTA) adapter is a one-way device that enables cable operators to move quickly and cost-efficiently to all-digital infrastructures by delivering digital-quality video and audio service to existing analog cable customers.

In addition, following the February 17, 2009 broadcast digital transition, cable operators will provide analog, standard- and high-definition digital broadcast signals to their customers. The DTA adapter is one of the ways cable providers will be able to deliver analog and standard-definition broadcast signals following that transition.
