 PROFILE
GlobeSpan helps data shake a leg down the DSL trail. Its integrated circuits -- employed in modem-related digital subscriber line (DSL) equipment -- speed data transmissions over existing copper wire phone networks. GlobeSpan's chips offer symmetric, asymmetric, high-bit-rate, and other DSL technologies. They also contain microprocessors and software that set data transmission rates. GlobeSpan, which emerged from Lucent Technologies' 1996 spinoff of AT&T Paradyne, outsources its production primarily to Lucent. Customers include Cisco Systems (28% of sales), Lucent (24%), and Nortel Networks (11%). Entities affiliated with Texas Pacific Group (controlled by GlobeSpan director James Coulter) own 20% of GlobeSpan.
