Jay, It looks like any further dip from the after hours price will take us under 30. INTC has really spooked the market after hours today. Of course all stocks in the tech sector will get trashed because INTC was late with the pentium 3 and Europe isn't buying as many pc's...that makes total sense, right? Good luck, tp

ADC bids for higher headend presence

Inc,

Sep. 22, 2000 (Electronic Engineering Times - CMP via COMTEX) -- MINNEAPOLIS - ADC Telecommunications Inc. made a $2.5 billion stock offer for Broadband Access Systems Inc. (Westborough, Mass.) last week. The move could give ADC as broad a reach in cable TV headends as it now enjoys in telco central offices.

Broadband Access was founded to design a routing switch for headends that would perform functions similar to those handled by Redback Networks' provisioning platform. ADC is no stranger to cable multisystem operators, which already use its RFworx platforms for signal aggregation in cable networks. But the addition of the Broadband Access Cuda switch would expand ADC's Internet Protocol expertise.

For telco central offices, ADC has mixed its own Cellworx and Soneplex platforms with the PairGain xDSL concentrators and Avidia switches acquired from PairGain Technologies Inc. The company is looking to the proposed acquisition to give it similar leverage for serving cable MSOs.
