3.  NON-RECURRING EXPENSES

In March 1998, the Company adopted a plan to restructure certain of its
operations to increasingly focus and streamline its product offerings. As a
result of these actions, the Company recorded charges of approximately
$1,300,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1998. These one-time charges included
$657,000 reported as non-recurring restructuring expenses primarily covering
estimated severance costs, $450,000 reported as cost of revenue for various
write-downs of excess and obsolete inventory, and $193,000 for certain
facilities costs reported as research and development expenses. Approximately
$650,000 of the $1,300,000 charge required a cash outlay, substantially all of
which had been paid as of March 31, 1999.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

      The Company's results of operations for the three month period ended March
31, 1998 includes the impact of $1.3 million of non-recurring expenses recorded
as a result of restructuring actions undertaken in March, 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      REVENUE Revenue increased 41% to $16.6 million in the quarter ended March
31, 1999 from $11.8 million in the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase
was primarily driven by increased revenue from Multimedia Conference Server
(MCS) products, including software and hardware upgrades related to new releases
of the company's ISDN products, and increased revenue from the Company's
Encounter family of Internet Protocol (IP) based products. Revenue from the
Company's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) partners was supplemented by
increased sales to service providers and resellers, as the Company expands its
global presence and builds channels for its IP based products.

      Revenue from international markets, primarily in Europe, accounted for
approximately 32% of revenue for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. The
Company expects that revenue from international markets, which is currently
denominated in U.S. dollars, will continue to be a significant portion of the
Company's business.

      GROSS PROFIT Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 62.9% in the
quarter ended March 31, 1999 as compared with 57.4% in the quarter ended March
31, 1998. Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 was reduced by a
one-time charge to cost of sales in the amount of $450,000, undertaken as part
of the March 1998 restructuring, to write down certain inventory to its net
realizable value. Margin improvements in the quarter ended March 31, 1999 were
primarily attributed to an increase in the proportion of high-end higher margin
products in the revenue mix, improved coverage of fixed manufacturing costs due
to overall volume increases, and improved service margins. Gross profit rates
may be affected in future periods due to changes in the proportion of low-end,
lower margin products in the revenue mix and increased competition.

      RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses of $3.8 million
were approximately the same in both the quarter ended March 31, 1999 and March
31, 1998, representing 23% and 32% of revenue for the respective periods. The
Company continues to develop and enhance its ISDN, ATM, and Internet Protocol
(IP) based products and to extend its multimedia networking technologies to
emerging markets. The Company expects to continue to commit substantial
resources to research and development in the future.

      SALES AND MARKETING Sales and marketing expenses increased 34% to $3.8
million in the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $2.8 million in the quarter
ended March 31, 1998, representing 23% and 24% of revenue for the respective
periods. The increased spending was primarily due to the addition of sales and
marketing personnel, increased sales commissions, and the expansion of field
sales offices, particularly in the European and Asia Pacific markets. The
Company expects continued increases in sales and marketing expenses as it
broadens its channels of distribution and extends its reach into new geographic
territories.

      GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE General and administrative expenses increased
8% to $1.3 million in the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $1.2 million in the
quarter ended March 31, 1998, representing 8% and 10% of revenue for the
respective periods. The increased spending is primarily attributed to
expenditures related to the Company's new corporate-wide financial accounting,
manufacturing, and sales and distribution system.

      NON-RECURRING EXPENSES In March 1998, the Company adopted a plan to
restructure certain of its operations to increasingly focus and streamline its
product offerings. As a result of these actions, the Company recorded charges of
approximately $1,300,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1998. These one-time
charges included $657,000 reported as non-recurring restructuring expenses
primarily covering estimated severance costs, $450,000 reported as cost of sales
for various write-downs of excess and obsolete inventory, and $193,000 for
certain facilities costs reported as research and development expenses.
Approximately $650,000 of the $1,300,000 charge required a cash outlay,
substantially all of which was paid as of March 31, 1999.

      INTEREST INCOME, NET Interest income, net, increased to approximately
$543,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1999, from approximately $465,000 in the
quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase was due to an increase in the amount
of cash available for investment.

      PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes in the
current quarter was at a 34% rate. Tax benefits, primarily related to research
and development tax credits and interest earned on tax exempt securities, were
offset by state and foreign income taxes. In the quarter ending March 31, 1998,
the Company did not recognize tax benefits associated with the loss incurred in
that period.

      OTHER FACTORS WHICH MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATIONS There are a number of
business factors which singularly or combined may affect the Company's future
operating results. Some of them, including dependence on major customers, market
growth and the risks and uncertainties related to an evolving market, rapid
technological change, competition, variability of quarterly results, protection
of proprietary technology, retention of key employees, uncertainties regarding
patents, and the impact of the Year 2000 issue have been outlined in the
Company's 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders, incorporated by reference into the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

      On April 5, 1999, the Company amended its patent infringement suit against
Accord Telecommunications, Inc., originally filed in November 1998, to include a
claim that Accord infringes on a patent for video image playback issued to
VideoServer on March 23, 1999. Additional information regarding this suit can be
found in the Management's Discussion and Analysis section of the Company's 1998
Annual Report to Shareholders.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      At March 31, 1999, the Company has cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities of $52.4 million, including cash generated from operations in the
quarter ended March 31, 1999 of approximately $1.5 million. The Company
regularly invests excess funds in short-term money market funds, government
securities, and commercial paper.

      At March 31, 1999, the Company has available a bank revolving credit
facility providing for borrowings up to $7.5 million. Borrowings are limited to
a percentage of eligible accounts receivable, and are unsecured. Under this
credit facility, the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios
and minimum levels of net worth and profitability, and is prohibited from paying
cash dividends without the Bank's consent. No borrowings have been made under
this facility.

      The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities, together with cash generated from operations and
borrowings available under the Company's credit facility, will be sufficient to
meet the Company's cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
