During the past five years, neither Parent nor Purchaser and, to the best
knowledge of Parent and Purchaser, no other person referenced in this Item 2 has
been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and
similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding
was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future
violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or
state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
The funds used by Purchaser to purchase the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned directly by Purchaser (and indirectly by Parent) were
obtained through a capital contribution from Parent. Parent obtained such funds
from its cash on hand.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
Parent, Purchaser and the Company are parties to an Agreement and Plan of
Merger dated as of November 19, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"). Pursuant to the
Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced on November 25, 1997 a tender offer (the
"Offer") for all outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company at a price of
$20.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest. The Offer expired
at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on December 23, 1997. Following the
expiration of the Offer, Purchaser accepted for payment 15,290,381 shares of
Common Stock (approximately 77.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock) validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, which number
gives effect to the failure of a number of shares of Common Stock to be
delivered in accordance with guaranteed delivery procedures. In accordance with
the terms of the Merger Agreement, three of the Company's five directors
resigned upon the consummation of the Offer and were replaced with three persons
designated by Parent.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a meeting of the Company's stockholders
will be held as soon as practicable for the purpose of approving the merger (the
"Merger") of Purchaser with and into the Company. In connection with the Merger,
the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent and each issued and
outstanding share of the Company's Common Stock (other than shares owned by
Purchaser, held in the treasury of the Company or with respect to which
dissenter's rights have been demanded and perfected in accordance with
applicable Delaware law) shall be converted into the right to receive $20.00 in
cash. Under Delaware law, the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, including the shares owned
by Purchaser, will be required to approve the Merger. Because Purchaser owns
approximately 77.3% of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, it will have
the power to effect the Merger without the approval of any other stockholder of
Company. Upon consummation of the Merger, Parent intends to delist the Company's
Common Stock from the NASDAQ Stock Market and to terminate the registration of
the same under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

7
The purpose of the Offer and the Merger is to enable Parent, through
Purchaser, to acquire control of the Company's board of directors and the entire
equity interest in the Company. The Offer was commenced and consummated to
increase the likelihood that the Merger would be completed promptly.
Except for the Merger and the election of Parent's designees to fill a
majority of the seats on the Company's board of directors, Parent and Purchaser
have no present plans or proposal that would result in an extraordinary
corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, liquidation, or sale or
transfer of a material amount of assets, involving the Company or any other
material changes in the Company's capitalization, dividend policy, corporate
structure, business or composition of its management. However, Parent and
Westell Technologies, Inc. ("Westell") have entered into an agreement in
principle to outsource to Westell certain of the Company's manufacturing
activities so that following the Merger, the Company can focus on the commercial
implementation of its technologies and research and development activities
related thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent intends to evaluate and
review from time to time the Company's assets, operations, management and
personnel and consider what, if any, changes would be desirable in light of
circumstances which then exist. Parent reserves the right to take such actions
or effect such changes as it deems advisable.
ITEM 5. INTEREST OF SECURITIES OF ISSUER
Purchaser is the direct beneficial owner, and Parent is the indirect
beneficial owner, of 15,290,381 shares of the Company's Common Stock
(approximately 77.3% of the issued and outstanding shares). All of such shares
were purchased pursuant to the Offer as described in Item 4.
Parent and Purchaser may be deemed to share both the power to vote and the
power to dispose of all shares of the Company's Common Stock held by Purchaser.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
Reference is hereby made to the information provided under Item 4 of this
statement, which Item contains the information called for in response to this
Item 6.
