     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
             (In Thousands, Unless Otherwise Noted)

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The  consolidated  balance  sheet  as  of  March  31,  1995,  the
consolidated  statements of income for  the  three  months  ended
March  31,  1995  and 1994, the consolidated statements  of  cash
flows for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 and  the
consolidated  statement of stockholders'  equity  for  the  three
months  ended  March  31, 1995 of General Instrument  Corporation
(the  "Company") are unaudited and reflect all adjustments  of  a
normal  recurring nature which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period financial
statements.  There were no adjustments of a non-recurring  nature
recorded  during the three months ended March 31, 1995 and  1994,
except  for an adjustment in March 1995 to reflect the settlement
of  certain  tax  matters (See Note 4) and  a  cumulative  effect
adjustment  to reflect the adoption, as of January  1,  1994,  of
Financial  Accounting Standards Board Statement  No.  112  ("SFAS
112"), Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits.   These
consolidated  financial statements should be read in  conjunction
with  the  Company's  December  31, 1994  consolidated  financial
statements and notes thereto.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the comparative prior
period  financial  statements to conform to  the  current  period
presentation.

In  January  1995, CommScope, Inc., an indirect  wholly-owned
subsidiary  of the Company, entered into an $11 million  loan
agreement  in  connection with the issuance of notes  by  the
Alabama   State   Industrial  Development   Authority    (the
"Flexible Term Notes").  Borrowings under the loan  agreement
bear  interest   at  variable   rates   based   upon  current
market conditions for short-term financing.  The loan  agree-
ment   will    mature  on  January 1, 2015 and any  remaining
amounts   outstanding  under  the Flexible Term Notes will be
due and payable on that date.


4. INCOME TAXES

The  provision  for income taxes for the three  months  ended
March 31, 1995 is based on the expected annual  rate  reduced
by a  $12  million  credit  for the settlement of certain tax
matters.

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In  April  1995,  affiliates of Forstmann Little  &  Co.  and
certain  current and former directors of the Company sold  an
aggregate of 15.595 million shares of Common Stock in a public
offering.   The  Company  received  no  proceeds  from   such
offering.

In  April 1995, the stockholders approved an amendment to the
Company's  Certificate of Incorporation which  increased  the
number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 400 million.

<PAGE>

                 GENERAL INSTRUMENT CORPORATION
             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET SALES
Net  sales for the three months ended March 31, 1995  ("First
Quarter 1995") were $609 million compared to $433 million  in
the  three month period ended March 31, 1994 ("First  Quarter
1994"),   an increase of $176 million, or 41%.  This increase
relates  primarily  to  higher  sales  volume  in  both   the
Broadband Communications and Power Semiconductor segments.

Broadband Communications sales increased 42% in First Quarter
1995   over    First Quarter 1994, primarily as a  result  of
increased  sales  volume  of  GI  Communications'  DigiCipher
digital  compression products, distribution  electronics  and
analog  addressable system products. The higher sales  volume
reflects  commercialization of digital broadband systems  and
continued  increased cable television operator infrastructure
spending  in  the  United States, as well  as  the  continued
deployment  of  new cable television systems in international
markets.   Cable  television product sales increased  24%  in
First  Quarter 1995 over First Quarter 1994 and international
sales  of  cable  television electronics  and  coaxial  cable
increased 61% in First Quarter 1995 over First Quarter  1994.
The  increased    sales    in    First  Quarter    1995  were
partially offset by a decline in the sales of VideoCipher  RS
analog satellite receiver consumer modules.  In First Quarter
1994,  the Company had significant sales of these modules  to
persons  who  had  been receiving without  authorization  (or
"pirating")   the   commercial  satellite  programming   data
signals, whereas, in First Quarter 1995 these sales  were  at
minimal   levels   as   expected.   However,   shipments   of
VideoCipher RS analog satellite receiver consumer modules for
owners  of  new  C-Band satellite dishes increased  in  First
Quarter  1995 over First Quarter 1994 and the Company expects
sales   opportunities  to  potential  new  owners  of  C-Band
satellite dishes to continue into the second quarter of  1995
(although there can be no assurance as to the amount of those
sales), and to decline, perhaps substantially, thereafter.

Power Semiconductor sales increased 33% in First Quarter 1995
over  First Quarter 1994, primarily as a result of  increased
sales  volume.   Global  demand  for  power  rectifiers   and
protection  devices  continued to fuel growth  of  the  Power
Semiconductor segment with the most significant increases  in
sales of components to be incorporated in telecommunications,
automotive, computer, and consumer electronics products.

GROSS PROFIT (NET SALES LESS COST OF SALES)
Gross  profit increased $42 million, or 28%, to $191  million
in  First  Quarter  1995 from $149 million in  First  Quarter
1994.  Gross profit was 31.3% of sales in First Quarter  1995
compared to 34.5% of sales in First Quarter 1994.

The  increase in gross profit principally reflects the higher
sales  volume discussed above. The lower gross profit  margin
in   First  Quarter  1995  compared  to  First  Quarter  1994
primarily reflects a shift in product mix from higher  margin
VideoCipher RS analog satellite receiver consumer modules  to
DigiCipher  digital  compression  products,  which  initially
carry lower margins, partially offset by the positive effects
of  production  efficiencies as a result of increased  volume
and cost reduction efforts.


SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling,   general   and  administrative  ("SG&A")   expenses
increased  $25 million to $64 million in First  Quarter  1995
from  $39 million in First Quarter 1994, and increased  as  a
percentage of sales to 10.5% in First Quarter 1995 from 9% in
First Quarter 1994.

SG&A  expense in First Quarter 1995  included expenses of  $8
million  related  to  the start-up of a national  advertising
campaign to support sales of C-Band satellite systems  and  a
$5    million    provision   related   to    the    potential
uncollectibility of certain receivables.  Adjusting for these
two  items,  SG&A expense was $51 million and 8.5% of  sales.
The  Company  has  been  increasing its  sales  force,  field
support  and  marketing  activities  to  take  advantage   of
increased  growth  opportunities in international  cable  and
satellite television and worldwide telecommunications markets.
The  increase in SG&A expense partly reflects such  increased
marketing  and selling costs which contributed to the  higher
sales volumes discussed above.


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research  and development ("R&D") expense was $34 million  in
First  Quarter 1995 compared to $26 million in First  Quarter
1994  and was approximately 6% of sales in each period.  This
level  of  spending  reflects continued  development  of  the
second   generation   of  cable  set-top   terminals,   which
incorporate  digital compression and multimedia capabilities;
development   of   enhanced  addressable  analog   terminals;
development  of  advanced  digital  systems  for  cable   and
satellite  television distribution; and  product  development
through  strategic alliances. Emerging R&D activities include
development  of broadband telephony products and  interactive
multimedia technologies for broadband networks.


NET INTEREST EXPENSE
Net  interest  expense was $13 million both in First  Quarter
1995   and  First  Quarter  1994.   Lower  weighted   average
borrowings in First Quarter 1995  compared  to  First Quarter
1994 were offset by higher interest rates.


CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
Effective  January  1,  1994, the Company  adopted  Financial
Accounting  Standards  Board Statement  No.  112,  Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits ("SFAS No. 112").   As
a  result  of adopting SFAS No. 112, the Company  recorded  a
cumulative effect charge to income of $2 million.


INCOME TAXES
Income  taxes increased to $17 million in First Quarter  1995
from $11 million in First Quarter 1994 and the effective  tax
rate  increased to 23% in First   Quarter  1995  from  17% in
First  Quarter  1994.  The  increase  in  the  effective  tax
rate  in  First Quarter 1995 is attributable to  the  Company
having  a  valuation allowance related to  domestic  deferred
tax  assets  in  1994 which was reduced during First  Quarter
1994,  to  the  extent  that  domestic  taxable  income   was
generated.   As  of December 31, 1994, the  majority  of  the
Company's domestic deferred tax assets were determined to  be
realizable  and  therefore there was no  valuation  allowance
impact  on income taxes in First Quarter 1995.  In  addition,
the  First Quarter 1995 income tax provision reflects  a  $12
million  credit  to  income, related  to  the  settlement  of
certain tax matters.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At  March 31, 1995, working capital was $279 million compared
to    $213 million at December 31, 1994.  The working capital
increase  of  $66  million was due principally  to  increased
sales  volume  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  accounts
receivable  and  increased deferred  tax  assets.   Based  on
current  levels  of  order  input and  backlog,  as  well  as
significant sales agreements not yet reflected in  order  and
backlog levels, the Company believes that operational working
capital  levels are appropriate to support future operations.
There  can  be  no  assurance, however, that future  industry
specific  developments or general economic  trends  will  not
alter  the Company's working capital requirements.  At  March
31,  1995,  the Company had borrowings of $194 million  under
its revolving credit facilities and credit commitments, which
the  Company  had not borrowed against, of $306 million.   In
addition,  in  January  1995, CommScope,  Inc.,  an  indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into  an  $11
million  loan  agreement in connection with the  issuance  of
notes  by the Alabama State Industrial Development Authority.
See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.

During  First Quarter 1995, the Company invested $27  million
in equipment and facilities.  These capital expenditures were
used  to expand capacity to meet increased current and future
demands  for analog and digital products, coaxial  cable  and
rectifiers.    Capital  expenditures  for  the  year   ending
December 31, 1995  are expected to approximate $170 million.

The   Company's   research   and   development   expenditures
(principally   focused   on   the  Broadband   Communications
business)  were $34 million and $26 million in First  Quarter
1995  and  First Quarter 1994, respectively, and are expected
to  approximate $130 million for the year ending December 31,
1995.

At March 31, 1995, the Company had $9 million of cash and cash
equivalents  on hand compared to $5 million at  December  31,
1994.   At March 31, 1995, long-term debt, including  current
maturities,  was  $762 million compared to  $797  million  at
December 31, 1994.

The  Company's principal source of liquidity both on a short-
term and long-term basis is cash flow provided by operations.
Occasionally,  however, the Company may  borrow  against  its
revolving  credit  facilities to supplement  cash  flow  from
operations.   The  Company  believes  that,  based  upon  its
analysis  of  its consolidated financial position,  its  cash
flow  during the past 12 months and the expected  results  of
operations  in the future, operating cash flow and  available
funding  under  its  revolving  credit  facilities  will   be
adequate   to   fund  operations,  research  and  development
expenditures, capital expenditures and debt service  for  the
next  12  months.  The Company intends to repay its remaining
indebtedness primarily with cash flow from operations.  There
can  be  no assurance, however, that future industry specific
developments  or general economic trends will  not  adversely
affect  the Company's operations or its ability to  meet  its
cash requirements.
