Although the original purpose of FSS was to transport signals(including broadcast signals) to fixed commercial receiving sites(e. g. cable head ends, regional broadcasting stations, telephone company receiving points), FSS signals have since been made available to individual households using private TVROs [television receiving only]. This secondary activity of FSS is referred to as DTH [direct-to-home broadcasting].  3, record 1, English, - direct%2Dto%2Dhome%20satellite%20system

Bien que le but des «FSS» [fixed satellite services] fut initialement de transporter des signaux (incluant les signaux de radiodiffusion) à des sites de réception commerciaux fixes (p. ex. : tête de ligne de câble, stations de radiodiffusion régionales, sites de réception des compagnies de téléphone), les signaux «FSS» ont depuis été mis à la disposition des foyers utilisant des antennes paraboliques privées.

Providing transfer rates comparable to a T1 line at about 1.5 Mbps, HDSL receives information and sends information at the same high Internet speed through a modem or wireless connection, but it requires two different lines that are separate from your phone line.

HDSL(High bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line), one of the earliest forms of DSL, is used for wideband digital transmission within a corporate site and between the telephone company and a customer. The main characteristic of HDSL is that it is symmetrical : an equal amount of bandwidth is available in both directions. HDSL can carry as much on a single wire of twisted-pair cable as can be carried on a T1 line.  3, record 3, English, - high%20bit%20rate%20digital%20subscriber%20line

Before competition, all these technologies used to operate completely on their own, each supplying the consumer with a distinct service. The phone company brought you phone service, a cable company brought you television, and you got your computer or digital phone from others. Digital technology is changing all this, making it possible for anything--a voice over a phone line, a TV picture and accompanying sound, data from your computer--to be reduced to digital "bits" and send over any kind of access line. This means that some day, the phone will ring and you will answer by talking to your computer screen, which will also be the place you can watch a movie or the news.  1, record 4, English, - convergence

Avant l'avènement de la concurrence, toutes ces industries fonctionnaient de façon entièrement indépendante, chacune offrant au consommateur un service distinct. La compagnie de téléphone vous fournissait le service de téléphone, le câblodistributeur, la télévision et d'autres compagnies veillaient à répondre à vos besoins en matière d'informatique et de téléphonie numérique. La technologie numérique est en train de tout changer, rendant possible la réduction de quoi que ce soit - la voix sur une ligne téléphonique, des images de télévision et les sons connexes, ou des données de votre ordinateur - en des «bits» numériques qui sont envoyés par toutes sortes de lignes d'accès. Autrement dit, un bon jour, le téléphone sonnera et vous pourrez y répondre en parlant à votre écran d'ordinateur, d'où vous regarderez aussi des films ou les informations.  1, record 4, French, - convergence

For example, airlines know that passenger load is the most critical variable affecting their profitability. Therefore they focus on increasing this figure, adding as much to shareholder value as possible without destroying value in other aspects of the business. Likewise, a television cable company knows that the number of subscribers is the all-important variable in determining their profitability. The goal of value chain analysis is to discover these key drivers of shareholder value by understanding how each activity the firm undertakes creates value for customers.  1, record 9, English, - value%20driver
