PROSPECTUS
GLASGAL COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
1,150,227 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
This Prospectus relates to the reoffer and resale by certain selling
stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") of shares (the "Shares") of the Common
Stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of Glasgal Communications, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company") that were (i) previously issued by the
Company to the Selling Shareholders or (ii) will be issued by the Company to the
Selling Shareholders upon the conversion of the Company's Series C Convertible
Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred").
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by
the Selling Stockholders or upon conversion of the Series C Preferred. The
Company has agreed to bear certain expenses including expenses of counsel for

Selling Stockholders.
The Shares may be offered by the Selling Stockholders, or by pledgees,
donees, transferees or other successors in interest therefrom from time to time

negotiated transactions, or a combination of such methods of sale, at fixed
prices which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at
prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Such
transactions may be effected by selling the Shares to or though broker-dealers,
and such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts,
concessions or commissions from the Selling Stockholders and/or the purchasers
of the Shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they
sell as principals, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer
might be in excess of the customary commissions). To the extent required, the
specific Shares to be sold, the names of the holders, the public offering price,

discount with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying
Prospectus Supplement.

RISK FACTORS
THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. EACH
PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS
INHERENT IN, AND AFFECTING THE BUSINESS OF, THE COMPANY BEFORE MAKING AN
INVESTMENT DECISION. ON OCTOBER 31, 1996, THE COMPANY COMPLETED THE ACQUISITION
OF DATATEC INDUSTRIES INC. ("DATATEC"). THE ACQUISITION WILL BE ACCOUNTED FOR ON
A POOLING OF INTERESTS BASIS, HOWEVER, THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
INCLUDED HEREIN DOES NOT CURRENTLY INCLUDE INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO DATATEC,
WHICH FINANCIAL INFORMATION WILL EVENTUALLY BE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN.
Working Capital Deficiencies; History of Losses. The Company has a
history of limited working capital and had a working capital deficiency in the
fiscal year ended April 30, 1995 of $2,412,000. In the fiscal year ended April
30, 1996, and the three months ended July 31, 1996, the Company had working
capital of $2,470,000 and $2,412,000, respectively. In addition, although the
Company had net income of $57,000 for the three months ended July 31, 1996, it
incurred net losses of $1,643,000, and $1,180,000 for the fiscal years ended
April 30, 1995 and 1996. There can be no assurance that the Company will
generate sufficient revenues to meet expenses or to operate profitably in the
future.
Revolving Credit Facility. The Company's primary revolving credit
facility expired on September 30, 1996. Datatec is a party to a revolving credit
facility which expires on March 31, 1997. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to enter into a new revolving credit agreement. If the
Company is unable to enter into a new revolving credit agreement, the Company's
business may be materially adversely affected.
Dependence On Key Personnel. The Company's future success depends in
large part on the continued service of its key personnel. In particular, the
loss of the services of Isaac Gaon, Chief Executive Officer, Robert Gadd, Vice
President - Federal and Enterprise Systems, David Tobey, President of Computer
Aided Software Integration, Inc. ("CASI"), of which the Company owns 80% of the
issued and outstanding shares or Christopher Carey, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Datatec, of which the Company owns approximately 98.5% of
the issued and outstanding shares, could have a material adverse effect on the
operations of the Company. The Company has an employment agreement with Mr. Gaon
which expires on October 31, 1999, which may be terminated by the Company for
cause or by Mr. Gaon for good reason. The Company has an employment agreement
with Mr. Tobey which expires on April 30, 2001, which may be terminated by the
Company for cause or by Mr. Tobey for good reason. The Company has an employment
agreement with Mr. Gadd which expires on December 31, 1996 and which may be
terminated by Mr. Gadd upon six months prior written notice to the Company. The
Company has an employment agreement with Mr. Carey
-3-
<PAGE>
which expires on October 31, 1999, which may be terminated by the Company for
cause or by Mr. Carey for good reason. The Company's future success and growth
also depends on its ability to continue to attract, motivate and retain highly
qualified employees, including those with the technical expertise necessary to
operate the business of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to attract, motivate and retain such persons.
Competition. The Company competes with other companies involved in the
installation and servicing of local and wide area networks, the provision of
software tools to systems integrations and the distribution of data
communications equipment. These competitors include computer manufacturers,
software vendors, telephone companies and distribution companies. These markets
are highly competitive, and some companies with which the Company competes are
substantially larger and have significantly greater resources than the Company.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully
in the future.
Export Sales; Adverse Effect of Inability to Collect All Export
Receivables. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 1995, the fiscal year ended
April 30, 1996 and the three months ended July 31, 1996 the Company had export
sales which were approximately 11.7%, 8.5% and 6.7%, respectively, of net sales.
While the Company attempts to obtain payment on export sales prior to shipment
or to obtain letters of credit, it is not always able to do so. The collection
of receivables pertaining to export sales is generally more difficult than the
collection of receivables arising from domestic sales. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in its efforts to collect all of such
receivables. The inability of the Company to collect all of such receivables
could have an adverse effect on the Company's cash flows and revenues. Of net
accounts receivable at July 31, 1996, approximately $567,000 (6.2%) were
attributable to export sales. In addition, the Company's international business
is subject to various risks common to international activities, including
political instability, economic instability and recessions, the inherent
difficulty of administering business abroad and the need to comply with a wide
variety of foreign import and U.S. export laws, tariffs and other regulatory
requirements. The Company's competitiveness in overseas markets generally may be
negatively impacted when there is a significant increase in the value of the
dollar against European currencies or the currencies of other countries where
the Company does business. The Company also expects to continue to face
heightened competition from manufacturers and distributors in the European
market.
Control by Principal Stockholders. Ralph Glasgal, the Chairman of the
Board and President of the Company, through his beneficial ownership and through
a voting agreement with Direct Connect International Inc. ("DCI") has the power
to vote approximately 24% of the Common Stock. DCI has pledged 1,175,000
-4-
<PAGE>
of the shares of Common Stock it owns in the Company as collateral for a loan.
If the pledgee were to become the owner of such shares, Mr. Glasgal would no
longer have the power to vote such shares. In addition, Mr. Carey, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Datatec has the power to vote approximately 18% of
the Common Stock.
Extended Lead Times for Realization of Revenue. Due to the nature and
size of orders that the Company is now pursuing there is a longer lead time
between the initiation of prospective business and the consummation of a
transaction, if any. Consequently, significantly more resources are required to
manage this process. As such, there is likely to be substantial fluctuations in
sales volume on a month-to-month and quarter-to-quarter basis. The pursuit of
this type of business increases the Company's risk of failure, especially given
its present level of working capital. As a result, if the Company experiences
lower than expected sales volume for an extended period of time, there will be a
material adverse effect on the Company.
Uncertainty of Revenues From Recent Contract. While the Company
recently entered into a contract with Telos Corporation ("Telos") to act as a
subcontractor under Telos' contract with the Immigration and Naturalization
Service (the "INS"), the contract is an "open" contract, which may be cancelled
by the INS at any time without penalty. While the Company has made sales of
approximately $7,521,000 under this contract as of April 30, 1996, there can be
no assurance that any future sales will result or that any such sales will
result in profits for the Company. In addition, due to the United States
government budget impasse, sales to date under this contract have been lower
than expected. No assurance can be given as to when the budget impasse will be
resolved.
Shares Eligible for Future Sale. The sale, or availability for sale, of
substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market pursuant to Rule 144 or
otherwise could adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock and could
impair the Company's ability to raise additional capital through the sale of its
equity securities.
The Redeemable Warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying such
Redeemable Warrants, upon exercise thereof, will be freely tradeable without
restriction under the Securities Act, except for any Redeemable Warrants or
shares of Common Stock purchased by an "affiliate" of the Company, which will be
subject to the resale limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Also, an
additional 950,000 redeemable warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying
such redeemable warrants are registered under the Securities Act. Holders of
such redeemable warrants have agreed not to Transfer such redeemable warrants,
or the underlying shares of Common Stock, prior to March 21, 1997, without the
prior written consent of Joseph Stevens & Company and the Company.
-5-
<PAGE>
The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Company's
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred"), the Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred") and Series C Preferred
(together with the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred the "Preferred
Stock") will be freely tradeable without restriction under the Securities Act.
As of the date hereof, approximately 1,659,593 shares of Common Stock would be
issuable by the Company upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock. Such number
of shares of Common Stock may increase based upon the market price of the
Company's Common Stock at the time of the conversion of the Preferred Stock.
In addition, without the consent of Joseph Stevens & Company, the
Company has agreed not to sell or offer for sale any of its securities prior to
March 21, 1997, except pursuant to outstanding options and warrants and pursuant
to the Company's existing option plan and no option shall have an exercise price
that is less than the fair market value per share of Common Stock on the date of
grant.
No Dividends. The Company has not paid dividends on its Common Stock
since its inception, other than distributions made by the Predecessor (as
hereinafter defined) to stockholders of the Predecessor in amounts sufficient to
reimburse the Predecessor's stockholders for federal (and some state) income tax
liabilities arising from the Predecessor's former status as an "S" corporation.
The Company currently intends to retain earnings, if any, for use in the
business and does not anticipate paying any dividends to its stockholders in the
foreseeable future.
Rights of Common Stock Subordinate to Existing and Future Preferred
Stock. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company authorizes the issuance
of a maximum of 4,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share.
The Company currently has outstanding 250,000 shares of Series A Preferred,
25,000 shares of Series B Preferred and 75,000 of Series C Preferred. The
holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends in an amount of
6% per annum and are entitled to a preferential distribution on liquidation of
the Company. In addition, the Company may be required to redeem the Preferred
Stock under certain circumstances. The shares of Preferred Stock are convertible
into Common Stock in accordance with their respective Certificates of
Designation. Holders of the Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any
matter submitted to the stockholders, provided, however, that the affirmative
vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Preferred Stock, is
required as to those matters which (i) alter or change adversely the powers,
preferences or rights given to the Preferred Stock or (ii) authorize or create
any class of stock ranking as to dividends or distribution of assets upon a
liquidation senior to, prior to or pari passu with the Preferred Stock. If
additional shares of preferred stock are
-6-
<PAGE>
issued in the future, the terms of a series of preferred stock may be set by the
Company's Board of Directors without approval by the holders of the Common Stock
of the Company. Such terms could include, among others, preferences as to
dividends and distributions on liquidation as well as separate class voting
rights. The rights of the holders of the Company's Common Stock will be subject
to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred
stock that may be issued in the future.
Certain Anti-takeover Charter Provisions. The future issuance of
preferred stock by the Company could have the effect of making it more difficult
for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from acquiring, a
majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company. Other than the
Preferred Stock described herein, the Company does not have any present plans to
issue any additional shares of preferred stock.
Acquisitions. It is currently anticipated that a portion of the
Company's future growth will result from acquisitions of other similar or
complementary businesses. In October 1994, the Company consummated the
acquisition of Signatel, Ltd. ("Signatel"). On April 24, 1996, the Company
acquired 80% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CASI, a provider of
software tools and services to systems integrators and independent software
vendors. On July 31, 1996, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of HH Communications, Inc. ("HH"), which resells
computer networking equipment and provides value-added services in connection
with such equipment. On October 31, 1996, the Company acquired approximately
98.5% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Datatec, a network
integrator. The Company has no other current plan or agreement to acquire any
other business. There can be no assurance that any other transaction will be
consummated or that they will result in increased levels of profit for the
Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
integrate or manage successfully other acquired businesses.

THE COMPANY
In May 1994, Glasgal Communications, Inc., a New Jersey corporation
incorporated in 1975 (the "Predecessor") merged with and into Sellectek
Incorporated, a California corporation incorporated in 1983 ("Sellectek") (the
"Merger"). The surviving entity, Sellectek, changed its name to Glasgal
Communications, Inc. following the Merger and continued its existence under the
laws of the State of California. The Merger provided the Company with an
immediate infusion of approximately $750,000 in cash contributed by Sellectek
and created a publicly-traded vehicle to finance the future growth of the
Company's operations. Prior to the Merger, Sellectek was a publicly-traded
company whose common stock was listed on Nasdaq under the symbol ("SLTK")
without any on-going business operations. The Company's sole business is the
business of the Predecessor, and while Sellectek was the survivor of the Merger,
for accounting purposes, the Merger is treated as a reverse acquisition with the
Predecessor as the acquiror. On January 29, 1996, the Company reincorporated
into the State of Delaware. Glasgal Communications, Inc., a California
corporation, merged with and into Glasgal Communications, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, which corporation was incorporated in January 1996. As used in this
Prospectus, the term "Company" refers collectively to Glasgal Communications,
Inc., the Predecessor, Signatel, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, CASI,
of which the Company owns 80% of the issued and outstanding shares, HH, a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company, and Datatec, of which the Company owns
approximately 98.5% of the issued and outstanding shares.
The Company is an open systems integrator that designs, installs and
services local and wide area networks which incorporate a broad range of
computer hardware, networking systems and software products and provides
software tools and services which simplify the integration of systems. The
Company also distributes data communications equipment. Networks are used to
distribute information which can be in the form of data, voice, images, video
and facsimile to multiple users. A local area network ("LAN") allows for the
transmission and sharing of data within one location. A wide area network
("WAN") allows for the transmission and sharing of data among many locations.
The Company's strength as an open systems integrator lies in its WAN expertise,
as well as its capabilities in connecting disparate computing systems thereby
facilitating virtually seamless communication among organizations. As an open
systems integrator, the Company provides consulting and design services,
hardware, software, premises wiring, phone lines, installation and after- sales
service.
Although the Company was founded in 1975 as a distributor of data
communications equipment and services, beginning in 1991 the Company began
redirecting its efforts to become an open systems integrator providing complete
computer network systems and
-8-
<PAGE>
integration services. The Company believes that the integration service sales
will account for an increasingly larger percentage of the Company's sales in
future periods.
The Company is a single source supplier of equipment and telephone
line services from a variety of providers. The Company is an authorized reseller
of products for over 100 manufacturers and distributors, including Novell Inc.,
SCO Unix (Santa Cruz Operations, Inc.), Intel Corporation, Hewlett-Packard Co.,
Bay Networks, Inc., Sun Microsystems Computer Corporation, Micom Communications,
Inc., Microcom Inc., Cisco Systems Inc., RAD Data Communications, Inc. and
Racal-Datacom Inc. In addition, the Company resells telephone line services from
major companies, including LDDS WorldCom, Inc., Metropolitan Fiber Systems, Inc.
and Qwest Communications, Inc.
The Company has 15 sales and service offices throughout the United
States and five offices in Canada. The Company's export sales amounted to
approximately 8.5% and 6.7% of net sales for the fiscal year ended April 30,
1996 and the three months ended July 31, 1996, respectively. These sales are for
hardware only, which are sold to over fifty international agents around the
world.
The Company's objective is to become one of the leading open systems
integrators providing complete enterprise networking solutions to national and
international organizations. To achieve its objective, the Company will continue
to supplement its core competency in data communications with its expertise in
all aspects of networking and connectivity.
On October 28, 1994, the Company consummated the acquisition of all of
the voting capital stock of Signatel, a Canadian distributor of data
communications equipment and services for 875,000 shares of Common Stock. The
acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
The Company's executive offices are located at 151 Veterans Drive,
Northvale, New Jersey 07647. The telephone number of the Company is (201)
768-8082.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On April 24, 1996, the Company acquired 80% of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of CASI for a purchase price of $500,000 cash and
44,260 shares of the Company's Common Stock. CASI is a provider of software
tools and services to systems integrators independent software vendors, and
corporate information system departments which simplify the design,
installation, integration and support of information systems. These tools
utilize a proprietary Application Definition Language to load information system
configuration and messaging parameters into a common repository. This repository
is used by each tool comprising the
-9-
<PAGE>
Integrator's Workbench Product Series ("IWPS") to automate the administration of
and information exchange among heterogeneous system environments. CASI also
provides services which assist customers in using IWPS, or which use IWPS to
distribute fully integrated systems in support of customer contracts.
On July 31, 1996, the Company acquired 100% of the Common Stock of HH
in exchange for 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. HH resells
computer networking equipment and provides value-added services in connection
with such equipment.
On September 30, 1996, October 29, 1996, and November 15, 1996, the
Company consummated three separate financings with Southbrook International
Investments, Ltd. (the "Southbrook Placements") pursuant to which it issued
250,000 shares of Series A Preferred, 25,000 shares of Series B Preferred, and
75,000 shares of Series C Preferred, respectively. The net proceeds of the
Southbrook Placements aggregating approximately $6,590,000 are being used to
fund the working capital needs of the Company and Datatec.
On October 31, 1996, the Company acquired approximately 98.5% of the
Common Stock of Datatec in exchange for 4,000,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock. Datatec is a network integrator which provides full integration and
deployment services to a wide range of customers concentrated in the retail
market. Datatec has fifteen offices throughout the United States and one office
in Canada, and has approximately 300 employees.

* Less than 1%.
(1) Approximation based on the hypothetical conversion of 250,000 shares of
Series A Preferred, 25,000 shares of Series B Preferred, and 75,000
shares of Series C Preferred on November 18, 1996. The actual number of
shares of Common Stock that would be issuable to the Selling
Stockholder upon conversion of the Preferred Stock is determined by a
conversion formula which is based, in part, on the market price of the
Common Stock determined as of the date of conversion and, therefore,
can not be determined on the date hereof.
(2) The number of shares to be offered hereby was established pursuant to
certain registration rights which were granted by the Company to the
Selling Stockholders upon issuance of the Series C Preferred. Such
number was determined by multiplying two by the number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock which would have been issuable by the Company
upon conversion of the Series C Preferred on its date of issuance.
(3) Assumes that all Common Stock offered by the Selling Stockholder is
sold.
The Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part was filed by the
Company pursuant to certain registration rights granted to the Selling
Stockholders. There is no assurance that the Selling Stockholder that holds the
Series C Preferred will convert the Series C Preferred or that such Selling
Stockholder or any other Selling Stockholder will otherwise opt to sell any of

Stock beneficially owned by such Selling Stockholders, the public offering price

within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to the Common Stock
offered hereby, and any profits realized by the Selling Stockholders or such
brokers or dealers may be deemed to be underwriting commissions. Brokers'
commissions and dealers' discounts, taxes and other selling expenses to be borne
by the Selling Stockholders are not expected to exceed normal selling expenses
for sales over-the-counter or otherwise, as the case may be. The registration of
the Shares under the Securities Act shall not be deemed an admission by the
Selling Stockholders or the Company that the Selling Stockholders are
underwriters for purposes of the Securities Act of any Shares offered under this
Prospectus.
TRANSFER AGENT
The transfer agent, warrant agent and registrar for the Common Stock is
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, New York, New York.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
This Prospectus covers 1,150,227 shares of the Company's Common Stock. All of
the Shares offered hereby are being sold by the Selling Stockholders. The
securities covered by this Prospectus may be sold under Rule 144 instead of
under this Prospectus. The Company will realize no proceeds from the sale of the
Shares by the Selling Stockholders or upon the conversion of the Series C
Preferred.
The distribution of the Shares by the Selling Stockholders is not subject to
any underwriting agreement. The Selling Stockholders or their pledgees, donees,
transferees or other successors in interest therefrom may sell the Shares
offered hereby from time to time in transactions on one or more exchanges, in
the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, or a combination of
such methods of sale, at fixed prices which may be changed, at market prices
prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to prevailing market prices
or at negotiated prices. In addition, from time to time the Selling Stockholders
may engage in short sales, short sales against the box, puts and calls and other
transactions in securities of the Company or derivatives thereof, and may sell
and deliver the shares in connection therewith.
From time to time the Selling Stockholders may pledge their Shares pursuant to
the margin provisions of its customer agreements with its brokers. Upon a
default by the Selling Stockholders, the broker may offer and sell the pledged
Shares.
Such transactions may be effected by selling the Shares to or through
broker-dealers, and such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Stockholders and/or the
purchasers of the Shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to
whom they sell as principals, or both (which compensation as to a particular
broker-
-12-
<PAGE>
dealer might be in excess of the customary commissions). The Selling
Stockholders and any broker-dealers that participate with the Selling
Stockholders in the distribution of the Shares may be deemed to be underwriters
within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act and any commissions
received by them and any profit on the resale of the Shares may be deemed to be
underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling
Stockholders will pay any transaction costs associated with effecting any sales
that occur.
In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable,
the Shares will be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or
licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the Shares may not
be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable
state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is
available and is complied with by the Company and the Selling Stockholders.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person
engaged in the distribution of the Shares may not simultaneously engage in
market-making activities with respect to the Company's Common Stock for a period
of two business days prior to the commencement of such distribution. In addition
and without limiting the foregoing, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to
applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, including without limitation, Rules 10b-6, 10b-6A and 10b-7, which
provisions may limit the timing of the purchases and sales of shares of Common
Stock by the Selling Stockholders.
The Selling Stockholders are not restricted as to the price or prices at which
it may sell their Shares. Sales of such Shares may have an adverse effect on the
market price of the Common Stock. Moreover, the Selling Stockholders are not
restricted as to the number of Shares that may be sold at any time, and it is
possible that a significant number of Shares could be sold at the same time
which may also have an adverse effect on the market price of the Company's
Common Stock.
The Company has agreed to pay all fees and expenses incident to the
registration of the Shares, except selling commissions and fees and expenses of
counsel or any other professionals or other advisors, if any, to the Selling
Stockholders.
This Prospectus also may be used, with the Company's consent, by donees or
other transferees of the Selling Stockholders, or by other persons acquiring the
Common Stock under circumstances requiring or making desirable the use of this
Prospectus for the offer and sale of such shares.

CHANGE OF ACCOUNTANTS
In June 1994, the Company determined to change accountants to Arthur Andersen
LLP. The Company's prior auditors, KPMG Peat Marwick resigned. On the same date,
the Company engaged Arthur Andersen LLP, to audit its financial statements. The
decision to change accountants was made with the approval of the Company's Board
of Directors.
The Company believes, and has been advised by KPMG Peat Marwick that it
concurs in such belief, that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993 and
subsequent thereto, the Company and KPMG Peat Marwick did not have any
disagreement on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG Peat Marwick, would have caused it to make
reference in connection with its report on the Company's financial statements to
the subject matter of the disagreement.
No report of KPMG Peat Marwick on the Company's financial statements for
either of the past two fiscal years contained an adverse opinion, a disclaimer
or opinion or a qualification or was modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Article 6 of the Company's By-laws authorize indemnification of
directors and officers as follows:
The corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145
of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as that Section may be amended and
supplemented from time to time, indemnify any director, officer or trustee which
it shall have power to indemnify under the Section against any expenses,
liabilities or other matters referred to in or covered by that Section. The
indemnification provided for in this Article (i) shall not be deemed exclusive
of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any by-law,
agreement or vote on stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both
as to action in their official capacities and as to action in another capacity
while holding such office, (ii) shall continue as to a person who has ceased to
be a director, officer or trustee and (iii) shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. The corporation's
obligation to provide indemnification under this Article shall be offset to the
extent of any other source of indemnification or any otherwise applicable
insurance coverage under a policy maintained by the corporation or any other
person.
Expenses incurred by a director of the Corporation in defending a civil
or criminal action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he is or was a
director of the Corporation (or was serving at the Corporation's request as a
director or officer of another corporation) shall be paid by the Corporation in
advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt
of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director to repay such amount if it
shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be
II-1
<PAGE>
indemnified by the Corporation as authorized by relevant sections of the General
Corporation Law of Delaware.
To assure indemnification under this Article of all such persons who
are determined by the corporation or otherwise to be or to have been
"fiduciaries" of any employee benefit plan of the corporation which may exist
from time to time, such Section 145 shall, for the purposes of this Article, be
interpreted as follows: an "other enterprise" shall be deemed to include such an
employee benefit plan, including, without limitation, any plan of the
corporation which is governed by the Act of Congress entitled "Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974," as amended from time to time; the
corporation shall be deemed to have requested a person to serve an employee
benefit plan where the performance by such person of his duties to the
corporation also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, such
person to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes
assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to such
Act of Congress shall be deemed "fines"; and action taken or omitted by a person
with respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of such person's
duties for a purpose reasonably believed by such person to be in the interest of
the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a
purpose which is not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides as
follows:
(a) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative (other than action by or in the right
of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at
the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if
he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause
to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action,
suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a
plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create
a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner
which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
II-2
<PAGE>
or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful.
(b) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to
procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was
a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense
or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall
be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such
person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless
and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which
such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that,
despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or
such other court shall deem proper.
(c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent
of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections
(a) and (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or
matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
therewith.
(d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this
section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation
only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that
indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper
in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such
determination shall be made (1) by the board of directors by a majority
vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such
action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable,
or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs,
by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (3) by the
stockholders.
(e) Expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a
civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding
II-3
<PAGE>
may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of
such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall
ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses incurred
by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and
conditions, if any, as the board of directors deems appropriate.
(f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided
by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall
not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any
bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action
in another capacity while holding such office.
(g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by
him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether
or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against
such liability under this section.
(h) For purposes of this section, references to "the
corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation,
any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a
constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its
separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to
indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any
person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such
constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with
respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with
respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had
continued.
(i) For purposes of this section, references to "other
enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to
"fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with
respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the
request of the
II-4
<PAGE>
corporation" shall include any service as a director, officer, employee
or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves
services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to
any employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a
person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed
to be in the interest of the participant and beneficiaries of an
employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation" as referred to in
this section.
(j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided
by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise
provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has
ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to
the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a
person.
The Company maintains a directors and officers insurance and company
reimbursement policy. The policy insures directors and officers against
unindemnified loss arising from certain wrongful acts in their capacities and
reimburses the Company for such loss for which the Company has lawfully
indemnified the directors and officers. The policy contains various exclusions,
none of which relate to the offering hereunder.
The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each officer and
director of the Company. The contracts provide for indemnification of such
persons against expenses, liabilities and losses.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of an action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form
of prospectus shall be deemed to a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus
filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and
contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule
424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to
be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(c) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities
II-6
<PAGE>
Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Registration Statement on Form S-3
dated the date hereof (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission by Glasgal Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"). The Registration Statement relates to an aggregate of 1,130,227
shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common
Stock"). The Shares were (i) previously issued by the Company to the Selling
Shareholders named in the Registration Statement or (ii) will be issued by the
Company to the Selling Shareholders named in the Registration Statement upon the
conversion of the Company's Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C
Preferred").
We advise you that we have examined, among other things,
originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company, minutes of meetings of
the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company and such other documents,
instruments and certificates of officers and representatives of the Company and
public officials, and we have made such examination of the law, as we have
deemed appropriate as the basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. In making
such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity
to original documents of documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic
copies.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares have been duly authorized and either (i) are validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable or (ii) will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
upon conversion of the Series C Preferred.
We hereby consent to use of this opinion in the Registration
Statement and Prospectus, and to the use of our name in the Prospectus under the
caption "Legal Matters".
