1. Unaudited financial statements: In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for
a fair presentation of (a) the consolidated results of operations for the
six-months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, (b) the consolidated financial
position at June 30, 1998, and (c) the consolidated statements of cash
flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 have been
made. The results for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998, are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

3. Marketable Securities: The Company has invested in certain U.S. Government
issued debt instruments and other taxable securities. These investments are
classified as "available for sale" as defined by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115. The investment in these securities are therefore
recorded at fair value with any differences between fair value and cost recorded
as a separate component of stockholders' equity. At June 30, 1998, there were no
material differences between the fair value and cost of these marketable
securities.
4. Acquisition: On May 1, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding
common stock of A.C. Egerton (Holdings) PLC ("Egerton"), a public limited
company incorporated in England and Wales. The purchase price, paid in cash,
amounted to $27,836, including $1,275 of estimated costs of acquisition. The
excess of the fair value of assets acquired in excess of liabilities assumed
amounted to $8,646 which resulted in goodwill in the amount of $19,190.
Goodwill is being amortized on the straight-line basis over twenty years.
Results of operations of the acquired company are included in the accompanying
consolidated statements of income commencing on May 1, 1998.

6. Long-Term Debt: In conjunction with the acquisition of Egerton on May 1,
1998, the Company entered into a new Senior Revolving Loan Agreement
("Revolving Facility") with a bank to provide funds for the Egerton
acquisition as well as for working capital and equipment acquisition
purposes. The Revolving Facility is in the amount of $25,000 of which
$16,681 had been drawn down as of June 30, 1998. The outstanding balance
bears interest at a variable rate based on either the bank's base rate or
the applicable LIBOR rate depending on the nature of the borrowings. The
rate at June 30, 1998 was 8.5%. The loan is secured by substantially all
of the Company's tangible and intangible assets and up to 65% of the
capital stock of the Company's subsidiaries and is due April 30, 2003.

The Revolving Facility contains various financial and operating covenants
which, among other things, imposes limitations on the Company's ability to
incur additional indebtedness, merge or consolidate, sell assets except in
the ordinary course of business, make certain investments, enter into
leases and pay dividends. The Company is also required to comply with
covenants related to minimum net worth and other financial ratios.

7. In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), reporting
comprehensive income, which prescribes standards for reporting
comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income consists of
net income or loss for the current period and other comprehensive income
(income, expenses, gains and losses that currently bypass the income
statement and are reported directly in a separate component of equity).
SFAS 130 requires that components of comprehensive income be reported in a
financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other
financial statements. SFAS 130 is effective for financial statements
issued for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. There are no
components of income, other than as reflected on the Consolidated
Statements of Income, for the periods presented in these statements.
In 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131 ("SFAS 131"), Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information, which applies only to publicly held business entities. A
reportable segment, referred to as an operating segment, is a component of
an entity about which separate financial information is produced
internally, that is evaluated by the chief operating decision-maker to
assess performance and allocate resources. SFAS 131 is effective for
financial statements issued for periods beginning after December 15, 1997.
The Company operates in a one-industry segment as supplier of
telecommunications equipment. While the Company offers a wide range of
items for sale, many of them are marketed by a common sales force.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE
30, 1997
Net Sales. Net sales increased $10.3 million or 36.1% from $28.5 million
in the first six months of 1997 to $38.8 million in the first six months of
1998, as a result of increased sales of telecommunication enclosure and
component products of $9.7 million (including $5.2 million of Egerton products),
RF passive electronic devices of $0.4 million and $0.2 million of other related
equipment.
Domestic net sales increased $5.0 million or 20.6% from $24.3 million in
the first six months of 1997 to $29.3 million in the first six months of 1998,
primarily due to accelerated growth in both upgrade and rebuild construction to
facilitate increased broadband requirements. International net sales increased
$5.3 million or 126.2% from $4.2 million in the first six months of 1997 to $9.5
million in the first six months of 1998, primarily as a result of the Egerton
acquisition.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $3.9 million or 32.2% from $12.1
million in the first six months of 1997 to $16.0 million in the first six months
of 1998. $2.0 million of this increase is due to increased telecommunication
enclosure product sales volume, and $1.9 million from Egerton component sales.
Gross margin decreased from 42.5% to 41.2% during the comparable periods due to
a 36.5% margin contribution from the sale of Egerton products.
Commission Income. Commission income decreased $0.2 million or 66.7% from
$0.3 million in the first six months of 1997 to $0.1 million in the first six
months of 1998. The decrease is a result of the termination of a marketing
agreement for the sale of cable-in-conduit products.
Selling. Selling expense increased $1.3 million or 36.1% from $3.6 million
in the first six months of 1997 to $4.9 million in the first six months of 1998,
primarily as a result of increased sales and marketing expenses of $0.6 million
related to Standby Electronics expenses, $0.4 million related to Egerton
expenses and $0.2 million of increased freight expense. As a percentage of net
sales, selling expense was 12.6% in both comparable periods.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased $0.4
million or 80.0% from $0.5 million in the first six months of 1997 to $0.9
million in the first six months of 1998 primarily due to increased payroll and
expenses in the amount of $0.3 million associated with increased staffing and
$0.1 million related to Egerton expenses. As a percentage of net sales,
research and development increased from 1.8% in the 1997 period to 2.3% in the

the second quarter of 1997 to $23.1 million in the second quarter of 1998, as a
result of increased telecommunication enclosure and component products,
including $5.2 million of Egerton products.
Domestic net sales increased $2.7 million or 20.6% from $13.1 million in
the second quarter of 1997 to $15.8 million in the second quarter of 1998,

million in the second quarter of 1998, primarily as a result of the Egerton
acquisition.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $2.6 million or 37.1% from $7.0
million in the second quarter of 1997 to $9.6 million in the second quarter of
1998. This increase is from increased sales volume, including $1.9 million from

Selling. Selling expenses increased $0.9 million or 50.0% from $1.8
million in the second quarter of 1997 to $2.7 million in the second quarter of

$1.3 million or 130.0% from $1.0 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $2.3
million in the second quarter of 1998. The increase is primarily a result of

$0.3 million related to increased staffing. As a percentage of net sales,
general and administrative expense increased from 6.4% in the 1997 period to
10.0% in the 1998 period.

million or 150.0% from $0.2 million in the second quarter of 1997 to $0.5
million in the second quarter of 1998, as a result of increased staffing

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.3 million and $0.5 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. Net cash used in
financing activities of less than $0.1 million was used in financing activities
for the six months ended June 30, 1997, and net cash provided from financing
activities was $16.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Net cash
used in investing activities was $3.1 million and $13.3 million for the periods
ending June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively.
Accounts receivable increased from $9.2 million at December 31, 1997, to
$17.0 million at June 30, 1998, as a result of increased sales and $6.4 million
from the acquisition of Egerton. Inventories increased from $7.3 million at
December 31, 1997, to $15.3 million at June 30, 1998, primarily as a result of
increased finished goods in anticipation of higher sales in the second half of
1998 and $4.6 million from the acquisition of Egerton.
The Company made capital expenditures of $0.6 million and $1.6 million for
the second quarter of 1997 and 1998, respectively, and anticipates increased
capital spending for equipment, product tooling and test equipment for the
remainder of 1998.
On May 1, 1998, the Company acquired all of the stock of Egerton. Egerton
is a U.K. holding company with subsidiaries in the U.K., Australia and the U.S.,
which are involved primarily in the manufacturing and sales of telephone
equipment primarily in Europe, Asia and Australia. Purchase price of the stock
was approximately $26.9 million and was paid from the proceeds of bank borrowing
and the liquidation of short-term investments.
In conjunction with the acquisition of Egerton, the Company entered into a
new Senior Revolving Loan Agreement ("Revolving Facility") with a bank to
provide funds for the Egerton acquisition as well as for working capital and
equipment acquisition purposes. The Revolving Facility is in the amount of
$25.0 million of which $16.7 million had been drawn down as of June 30, 1998.
The outstanding balance bears interest at a variable rate based on either the
bank's base rate or the applicable LIBOR rate depending on the nature of the
borrowings.
Page 10 of 13
<PAGE>
The applicable rate at June 30, 1998 was 8.5%. The loan is secured by
substantially all the Company's tangible and intangible assets and up to 65% of
the capital stock of the Company's subsidiaries and is due April 30, 2003.
The Revolving Facility contains various financial and operating covenants
which, among other things, imposes limitations on the Company's ability to incur
additional indebtedness, merge or consolidate, sell assets except in the
ordinary course of business, make certain investments, enter into leases and pay
dividends. The Company is also required to comply with covenants related to
minimum net worth and other financial ratios.
The Company believes that income from operations, coupled with borrowing
under its revolving credit facilities will be sufficient to fund the Company's
capital expenditure and working capital requirements.
Forward-looking statements contained within this 10-Q are subject to many
uncertainties in the Company's operations and business environments. Examples
of such uncertainties include customer demand, low material costs, integration
of acquired business and worldwide economic conditions among others. Such
uncertainties are discussed further in the Company's annual report and S-1 filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
