 6.   DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

 In June 1999, the Company sold an 80% interest in part of its VOIP business,
 Quescom, for $1,172,000 to the former owner of Interphase's Paris Operation.
 The sales proceeds  consisted of  $300,000 due  at closing  with a  $830,000
 technology license fee. In January 2000, the remaining $830,000 due for  the
 technology license fee was collected and  recorded as a gain on disposal  of
 discontinued operations.  In addition, the Company sold the remainder of its

 In September, 1999  the Company  sold the  remainder of  its VOIP  business,
 Zirca Corporation ("Zirca") along with  the technologies developed by  Zirca
 for $300,000  cash and  stock valued  at $517,680  to UniView  Technologies,
 resulting in a gain of $140,000, net of $86,000 tax.  The UniView securities
 received as  part of  the agreement  are included  on the  Balance Sheet  in
 Marketable Securities, and accounted for as available-for-sale securities.

 Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 As of  March 31,  2000, the  Company  has completed  the  sale of  its  VOIP
 business; accordingly the  Company's consolidated  financial statements  and
 notes included herein, for all periods  presented reflect the VOIP  business
 as a discontinued operation in  accordance with Accounting Principles  Board
 Opinion No. 30.

 Revenues for the three months ended  June 30, 2000  ("second quarter  2000")
 were $13,332,000.    Revenues for  the  same period  in  1999  ("comparative
 period") were $17,657,000.    While the Company's legacy Networking LAN  and
 Fibre Channel  revenues have  declined  in the  second  quarter of  2000  as
 compared to the comparative period, our  WAN, SCSI and Networking  Broadband
 Telecommunications controller  revenues have  increased.   The  decrease  in
 revenue is primarily attributable to the effects of the transitional  period
 where the Company  is refocusing its  efforts on its  new Fibre Channel  and
 Networking Broadband Telecommunication controller.  In addition, the Company
 has developed  a  strategy  to  end-of-life  many  of  its  legacy  products
 beginning the second quarter 2000.

 Networking LAN product revenues, consisting of FDDI, Ethernet, ATM and  Fast
 Ethernet, represented 30% of total revenues for the second quarter 2000,  as
 compared to 42% for the comparative period.  FDDI product revenues  declined
 19%,  Ethernet  product  revenues  decreased  100%,  ATM  product   revenues
 increased 17% and Fast Ethernet product revenues declined 81% as compared to
 the comparative period.     FDDI, Ethernet,  ATM and  Fast Ethernet  product
 revenues represented 18%, 0%,  7% and 5% of  total Networking LAN  revenues,
 respectively for the second quarter 2000.
<PAGE>

 Mass storage product revenues, consisting of SCSI and Fibre Channel  adapter
 cards, represented 38%  of total revenues  for the second  quarter 2000,  as
 compared to 43% for the comparative period.  SCSI product revenues increased
 218% while Fibre Channel product revenues decreased 58% over the comparative
 period.

 Broadband telecommunication  controller revenues  represented 24%  of  total
 revenues for the second quarter 2000, as compared to 12% for the comparative
 period.  Broadband telecommunication controller  revenues grew 50% from  the
 comparative period.

 WAN product revenues comprised 4% of  revenues for the second quarter  2000,
 as compared  to  0%  for  the comparative  period.    WAN  product  revenues
 increased 832% as compared to the comparative period.

 Revenues for the six-month  period ended June 30,  2000 were $26,917,000  as
 compared to  $34,826,000  for the  six-month  period ended  June  30,  1999.
 Revenues from Networking LAN, Mass storage, Embedded and Networking WAN were
 28%, 46%, 20%,  and 3%  of total revenues  respectively, for  the six  month
 period ended June 30, 2000.

 The Company will continue  to focus on revenues  from Fibre Channel  adapter
 and Broadband  Telecommunication controller,  which  is expected  to  offset
 revenue declines in older technologies such as FDDI and Ethernet.

 The Company's current marketing strategy  is to increase market  penetration
 through  sales  to  major  OEM  customers.    Three  customers  individually
 accounted for 10% or  more of the Company's  second quarter revenue, in  the
 comparative period, one customer accounted for 52% of the Company's revenue.

 The gross margin percentage for the second quarter 2000 was 54% and 47%  for
 the comparative  period.   The gross  margin  percentage for  the  six-month
 period ended June  30, 2000  and 1999  was 55%  and 46%  respectively.   The
 increase in gross margin  is primarily due to  a continued focus on  product
 cost improvements, selling a  higher percentage of  products with a  greater
 gross margin than the comparative period, as well as a reduction in  product
 sales to certain OEM's at a lower gross margin, related to volume discounts.
 Since the Company is in a migration  of older products to new Fibre  Channel
 products and  Broadband Telecommunication  controller, the  gross margin  is
 expected to  be between  48% to  50% in  subsequent quarters,  as these  new
 products are expected to be priced competitively.

 Operating expenses for the second quarter  2000 were $6,643,000 as  compared
 to $6,867,000 for the  comparative period. Operating  expenses for the  six-
 month period ended June 30, 2000  and 1999 were $12,728,000 and  $12,870,000
 respectively.  Operating expenses have been held flat to a year ago, with an
 increase in sales and marketing activities,  offset by decreases in  general
 and administrative.  Operating expenses  are expected  to remain  consistent
 with our revenues.

 Other income increased $628,000 during the  second quarter 2000 as  compared
 to the comparative period.  During the second quarter 2000,  the Company was
 engaged in hedging transactions on certain  marketable  securities  received
 in  the  sale  of  its  VOIP  business.  As of  June 30, 2000  these hedging
 transactions resulted in a gain of approximately $613,000.

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 The Company's cash,  cash equivalents and  marketable securities  aggregated
 $19,638,000 at June  30, 2000, and  $16,276,000 at December  31, 1999.   The
 Company's increased cash position  is primarily due  to cash generated  from
 operations, the collection  of cash related  to the  disposition of  Quescom
 (see note  6), a  reduction  in inventory  and  the collection  of  accounts
 receivable, offset by the purchase  of marketable securities, fixed  assets,
 payment on debt, tax  payments and purchase  of common stock.   In the  next
 twelve months, scheduled debt payments on the Company's credit facility  are
 approximately $2,192,000.

 Effective October 1998,  the Company approved  a stock repurchase  agreement
 with Motorola, Inc.  to purchase  all of the  shares owned  by Motorola  for
 $4,125,000, ratably from October 1998 to July 2002.  Under the terms of  the
 agreement, Motorola retains the right as an equity owner and has assigned it
 voting rights to the Company.   The Company plans  to cancel the stock  upon
 each  repurchase.    Prior  to  the  repurchase  agreement,  Motorola  owned
 approximately 12% of  the Company's outstanding  common stock.   The  future
 scheduled  payments  are  classified  as  redeemable  common  stock  in  the
 accompanying consolidated  Balance Sheet.   As  of  June 30,  2000,  294,002
