The one on the left, almost identical to the former Frebox works as a DSL modem and manages phone calls. It now has 4 Ethernet ports and works as a router. Note the 3 Wi-Fi antennas that enable connexion via the recent MiMo protocole. It will allow thee transfer of HD video between the two boxes at a sufficient speed.
The second box you plug on the TV is impressive.
It is able to deliver SD and HD contents. It will connect to the TV via the usual means and also HDMI and audio digital outputs. It contains a TNT tuner, and also audio and video inputs in RCA and S-Video.
To end up with it, this Freebox allows the use of a Wi-Fi/GSM phone to make your calls. As usual, this Freebox is proposed by default to new subscribers, and at a various price to older ones, depending on their ancientness. The price is still a monthly 29.90 euros TTC. Telephoning via Wi-Fi requires an activation that costs 9.90 Euros.
