Note to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Basis of presentation - The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June
30, 1997, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the condensed consolidated statement of
stockholders' equity for the six months ended June 30, 1997, and the condensed

financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows for all
periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 1996 annual
report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the period ended June 30,
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF THE SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 VS. SECOND
QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
Revenue for the second quarter of 1997 increased 7% over the same period of
1996. Year-to-date revenue for 1997 is up 1% over 1996. These increases are
attributable to a higher number of units sold. Because of the Company's
concentration of sales to Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOC's) and
inter-exchange carriers, a small number of customers have represented
substantial portions of revenue. For the first six months of 1997, sales to four
companies comprised 62% of total revenue. Each of the four customers contributed
between 14% and 18% of total revenue. The Company sells to all of the seven
RBOC's.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 55% for the second quarter of 1997
versus 53% for the same period in 1996. Gross profit for the second quarter
benefited from the initial shipment of product which integrates the Cisco router
technology into the Company's AI 180 product offering. Year-to-date gross
profit percentages were 56% and 58% for 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
reduction in gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the first six months
was due to a change in product mix, costs incurred to support and upgrade
certain installed products, and selected price competition. The Company
anticipates that the gross margin percentage for 1997 will be higher than for
the full year of 1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased to $3,930,685 in
the second quarter of 1997 from $2,437,728 in 1996. As a percentage of revenue,
this represents 32% in 1997 and 21% in 1996. Year-to-date SG&A was $6,547,481
for 1997 and $4,589,983 for 1996 and represented 32% of revenue in 1997 and 23%
in 1996. SG&A increased $1,957,498 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 over
the same period last year and approximately $1,150,000 of the increase was
attributable to additional employment expenses for administrative personnel to
support current operations and increased sales, marketing and product management
personnel to support planned growth. The balance of the increase was primarily
attributable to increased commissions due on the sale of products containing
Cisco router technology, increased product management and marketing consulting
fees, and increased sales and marketing activities. To support continued growth,
the Company expects additional increases in sales and general administrative
personnel and related costs during 1997.
Research and development (R&D) expenses increased 66% to $2,678,750 for the
second quarter of 1997 from $1,612,615 for the same period in 1996. R&D
increased as a percentage of revenue to 22% from 14%. Year-to-date R&D expenses
were $5,837,724 for 1997 and $3,397,893 for 1996. As a percentage of revenue,
this represents 28% for 1997 and 17% for 1996. R&D increased $2,439,831 for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 over the same period last year and approximately
$1,100,000 of the increase was attributable to additional employment expenses
for engineering personnel to develop new product lines. The balance of the
increase was due primarily to the purchase of technology, the opening of the
Company's new R&D facility in North Carolina, and the purchase of test equipment
for the Company's internet access product under development. The Company
anticipates increased R&D expenses in future quarters to support its existing
product lines and to develop an Internet access product for its
telecommunication company customers.

<PAGE> 9
As a result of the above factors, income from operations decreased to $110,640
in the second quarter of 1997 from $2,038,905 in the second quarter of 1996.
Second quarter income from operations represents 1% and 18% of revenue in 1997
and 1996, respectively. Year-to-date results of operations was a loss of
$894,235 for 1997 versus income of $3,847,262 in 1996. Year-to-date income
(loss) from operations represents (4%) and 19% of revenue in 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
The Company's effective income tax rate was 37% for the current quarter versus
an effective rate of 39% for the same period in 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash decreased by $3,638,364 during the first six months of 1997 to $8,639,728
at June 30, 1997. Operating activities used $1,282,548 in cash. During the same
period in 1996, cash decreased by $375,707 to $8,800,580 at June 30, 1996.
Net working capital was $17,374,370 at June 30, 1997 compared to $19,090,815 at
December 31, 1996. Current ratios on those dates were 3.6:1 and 4.5:1,
respectively. The Company had no long-term debt at June 30, 1997 or December 31,
1996.
Net capital expenditures were $2,372,941 for the first half of 1997 and
$1,073,093 for the same period in 1996. The Company opened an R&D facility in
North Carolina in 1997. The new facility required approximately $ 645,000 in
initial capital expenditures for leasehold improvements and office equipment and
furnishings. The balance of the capital expenditures were primarily for test
equipment for the Company's internet access product under development and the
purchase of additional computer and network equipment for use throughout the
Company.
The Company has an unsecured revolving line of credit from a bank totaling
$5,000,000. Interest on the outstanding balance is payable monthly at the London
Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 2 percent. Unpaid principal is due March 31,
1998. The Company is in compliance with all related loan covenants. At June 30,
1997, the full $5,000,000 amount of the line was available.
The Company expects existing cash reserves, future operating profits, and
borrowing capabilities to be sufficient to meet operating and capital
expenditure requirements for the next 12 months.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
The foregoing statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis include
forward-looking statements concerning future gross margins (second paragraph),
SG&A expenses (third paragraph), R&D expenses (fourth paragraph), capital
expenditures (eleventh paragraph), and capital resources (eleventh paragraph),
all of which involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual experience
may differ materially from that projected above. Factors that might cause the
Company's present expectations to not materialize or to change include, but are
not limited to, changes in customer needs, demands and buying patterns for
telecommunication equipment; the timely development of new products and product
upgrades and the market's acceptance of such products; technological changes
affecting telecommunications equipment and software; changes in product warranty
experience; competitive pressures from companies with substantially greater
resources; the ability of the Company to hire additional technical personnel for
new product development; the Company's ability to manage its planned new product
development; and other factors discussed in the Company's prior filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996.
