History

Westell was founded in October 1980 in Willowbrook, Illinois, and initially produced electronic equipment used for signaling and transmission on telephone lines leased to private customers. Beginning in 1992, Westell began developing ADSL products. By the time of its IPO in 1995, Westell was a prominent DSLAM manufacturer. The company moved out of this business in the wake of the stock market downturn of 2002, and now focuses primarily on manufacturing DSL modems.

Products

Westell's primary business is the production and sale of DSL modems for the home and small office. More advanced models offer additional features and can act as an Ethernet switch and wireless access point. Rather than selling through retail channels, Westell typically sells its products to telephone companies, who in turn supply modems to new subscribers.

Westell's other businesses include Network Service Access (NSA) products and conferencing services through a subsidiary, ConferencePlus.
