ADC's NewNet TDMA OTAserver Receives Compatible Product Approval MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 26, 2000-- ADC's NewNet OTAserver and SMserver Applications Have Been Tested and Approved by Nortel Networks Wireless Interoperability Testing Program ADC (Nasdaq:ADCT; www.adc.com), a leading global supplier of fiber optics, network equipment, software and integration services for broadband, multiservice networks, announced today that its NewNet OTAserver TDMA application has been approved through the Nortel Networks Wireless Interoperability Testing program, gaining the Nortel Networks Compatible Product stamp of approval. The NewNet OTAserver and SMserver applications will be featured at the ADC booth at the PCIA GlobalXChange 2000 Tradeshow (Booth No. 3713) in Chicago, September 27-29. ADC's NewNet OTAserver software (release 2.1.2) offers over-air-activation and programming for CDMA and TDMA networks. The application provides digital wireless operators with the ability to provision wireless services quickly, cost-effectively and securely. The server software accepts, manages and ensures reliable completion of subscriber activation, authentication and roaming list updates "over-the-air." Nortel Networks Wireless Interoperability Testing program fully approved the interoperability of ADC's NewNet OTAserver application with DMS-MTX software generics in TDMA networks. The NewNet OTAserver was tested with the Nortel Networks DMS-MTX09CK switch, and phone technologies from Ericsson (KF 788 with software version R4e.00.FOFO HWV-R1H). ADC's NewNet SMserver (release 3.3.0) has also been approved by Nortel Networks Wireless Interoperability Testing program, having been tested with MTX07 DMS-MTX software generics for the TDMA and CDMA markets. ADC's NewNet SMserver software provides digital wireless operators with the ability to generate additional revenue and potentially increase airtime usage by adding short message service (SMS) applications to their portfolio of value-added subscriber services. The NewNet SMserver software manages transmission of text messages to mobile handsets, providing subscribers with voicemail notification, digital pages and custom short text messages. Indeed, NewNet SMserver has demonstrated in benchmark tests that it can deliver a throughput of 1,044,000 message delivery attempts per hour on a single computer. "As the Nortel Networks lab tests demonstrate, the ADC NewNet OTAserver application offers the complete technical solution that operators and resellers need to significantly enhance their customer service levels," said Grant Wakelin, president of ADC's Enhanced Services Division. "We are very pleased that the NewNet OTAserver and the NewNet SMserver have been approved by Nortel Networks testing program. ADC is one of very few companies to have achieved this critical level of approval with an over-the-air service provisioning product." ADC's Enhanced Services Division is a leading supplier of global telecommunications software for the convergence of voice and data communications in wireless, wireline and next generation networks. The NewNet product line consists of SS7 platforms commercially deployed in over 45 countries, as well as short messaging and over-the-air service provisioning solutions, SS7-IP gateways and Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) compliant lawful intercept solutions.

Tuesday, September 26, 2000 ADCT slides over 6 percent --12:47 pm - By Michael Baron ADC Telecom (ADCT: news, msgs) is falling $1.94, or 6.1 percent, to $29.62. Michael Sheldon, chief market strategist at Spencer Clarke, attributed the drop to investor concerns that languishing telecommunications providers like AT&T (T: news, msgs) and WorldCom (WCOM: news, msgs) may slow spending on capital equipment. "Absent any news, that seems to be what's weighing on the stock," said Sheldon, who has a "strong buy" rating on ADC with a price target of $65. "The sentiment is very poor right now." Brushing aside these spending worries, Sheldon said ADC is looking cheap. "I'd be an agressive buyer of the stock at these levels," he said. "The company has very good visibility for its revenue and earnings, a growing presence in the optical market and a diversified customer base."
