AIRLAN/Access and AIRLAN/Bridge Plus Now Shipping;
Completes Solectek's AIRLAN CAN (Campus Area Network) Offering

Products Permit High Speed, Untethered, Seamless, Wireless Mobile
Networking

SAN DIEGO, CA -- October 18, 1994 -- Solectek Corporation, the innovator of
wireless Campus Area Networking, today announced that AIRLAN/Access and
AIRLAN/Bndge Plus are now shipping. AIRLAN/Access and AIRLAN/Bridge Plus
are both integral to Solectek's AIRLAN CAN (Campus Area Networking), and
complete the AIRLAN suite of wireless products which enable PC/laptop
users to roam and communicate at full network speeds -- tested to be as
much as 200% faster than competitive products -- throughout their entire
campus, regardless of size.

"With these new AIRLAN CAN product offerings, Solectek can satisfy the
mobile user's needs to communicate wirelessly at full network speeds over
five doors, five floors, or five miles," said Jim DeBello, president and
CEO of Solectek Corporation. "AIRLAN/CAN offers untethered communications
with no recurring costs."

AIRLAN/Access is a wireless access point to a wired LAN which creates a
50,000 square foot roaming area, or "cell," for wireless workstations in a
typical office environment. Multiple AIRLAN/Access units, strategically
located, enable mobile users to roam seamlessly from access cell to access
cell. AIRLAN's advanced software provides roaming capabilities by
automatically switching addresses from one access point to another as
signals weaken.

10BaseT and coaxial connectors provide instant access anywhere on an
existing wire backbone, enabling any AIRLAN equipped PC or notebook within
800 feet to be instantly linked to the network using Solectek's built-in
configuration software.

AIRLAN/Blidge Plus is a powerful wireless bridge for linking wired or
wireless users at full network speeds in separate buildings up to three
miles apart, or greater distances when using special Solectek antenna
systems.

AIRLAN/Bridge Plus includes a new Base Station Protocol allowing multiple
buildings to be linked through a single unit. AIRLAN/Bridge Plus also
offers enhanced throughput -20% faster than the original AIRLAN/Bridge
product -- and advanced filtering, with reliable link protocol for
guaranteed packet delivery. The device outperforms and costs less than a
T1 bridge and performs up to 40 times faster than leased lines.

AIRLAN/Bridge Plus has menu-driven diagnostic software for easy
installation and alignment of antennas, as well as Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) software which allows network administrators to
perform remote management functions.

AIRLAN products use Spread Spectrum radio technology, operating within
902-928 megahertz. AIRLAN products offer a data rate of two megabits per
second, and are compatible with Ethernet standards and all major LAN
operating systems. The entire AIRLAN product family, including
AIRLAN/Access and AIRLAN/Bridge Plus, is designed to be compatible with
the upcoming wireless networking standard, and is compatible with all
wireless products from Digital (formerly DEC) and AT&T GIS.

AIRLAN/Access is available for $2499. AIRLAN/Bridge Plus is available for
$5499. Existing AIRLAN/Bridge users may purchase an AIRLAN/SNMP software
upgrade for $699. Other cost-effective, wireless LAN products from
Solectek include mobile adapters, AIRLAN/Parallel and AIRLAN/PCMCIA for
$699 each, and AIRLAN/Internal for desktop machines for $799.

AIRLAN products are available through Solectek Resellers, Integrators and
VARs or through major distributors. Toll free support is available. For
