Item 1. Description of Business

Entrada Networks, Inc., designs, manufactures and markets products that
enable the transport of data from storage area networks over Internet Protocol
IP and light to metro and wide area networks. We also design, manufacture and
market fast and gigabit Ethernet products that are incorporated into the remote
access and other server products of Original Equipment Manufacturers OEMs. In
addition, some of our products are deployed by telecommunications network
operators, applications service providers, internet service providers, and the
operators of corporate local area and wide area networks for the purpose of
providing access to and transport within their networks.

The Company is the product of a reverse merger completed on August 31, 2000 with
a wholly owned subsidiary of Sorrento Networks Corporation. This subsidiary was
doing business as Entrada Networks. We acquired all the outstanding capital of
Entrada Networks for 4.24 million of our common shares and issued an additional
2.43 million shares for cash of $8.0 million. Entrada Networks' obligation to
its former parent of $25.5 million was contributed to our capital as part of the
merger. As a result of the merger, the former parent of Entrada Networks held a
majority interest in the combined entity, which was renamed Entrada Networks,
Inc. from Sync Research, Inc. Accordingly, the merger has been accounted for as
a reverse merger, whereby Entrada Networks is deemed to have purchased Sync,
however Sync remains the legal entity and Registrant for Security and Exchange
Commission reporting purposes and the financial statements of the combined
entity now reflect the historical financial information of Entrada Networks
prior to August 31, 2000. Subsequent to the merger the former parent of Entrada
Networks has disposed of 4.56 million of its shares of our common stock
including those it distributed to its shareholders and currently holds
approximately 20.1% of our common shares outstanding.

Our principal business is the business formerly operated by Entrada Networks,
and in September 2000, our Board of Directors concluded that the operations of
our frame relay business segment would not contribute to our profitability or
toward our goal of entering the storage area networking market space and adopted
a formal plan to discontinue this business segment operated by Sync. Our
financial statements reflect the operations and financial position of the frame
relay business segment as a discontinued operation for all periods reported.
Unless otherwise specifically noted, this Annual Report refers to the Entrada
business and not to the former Sync business.

Understanding Our Market

(A glossary can be found beginning on page 12 for technical terms used
throughout this document.)

Entrada's Strategic Plan

o Pioneering SAN Transport. We are a pioneer in the transport of storage over IP
and light. Our storage area network ("SAN") transport technology will enable
OEMs and integrators to inter-network isolated islands of SANs over wide area
("WAN") and metro area ("MAN") networks over IP and light. The Company's line of
storage transport products will offer the widest available choice of
connectivity and protocol options to optimize data exchange between SANs. These
products will help ensure data integrity regardless of distance and provide
continuous access to mission-critical information. Our expertise in optical
networking, Internet, Fibre Channel and fast and gigabit Ethernet technologies
will enable us to offer unrivaled storage transport products, such as our
Silverline'TM'-222 six port switch that connects Fibre Channel based SANs over
IP networks.

o Pioneering Storage over Light Transport. We will be introducing, in early
calendar 2002, a line of next generation storage transport products using wave
division multiplexing ("WDM") technology that will extend, passively or
intelligently as the problem may require, the distance of a SAN's fabric,
gigabit Ethernet, enterprise system connection ("ESCON") or fibre connectivity
("FICON") to a mainframe computer. This line of innovative optical products is
already under development at our San Diego headquarters. We plan to follow these
products with a unique storage over IP and light director, that will have the
functionality of a typical Fibre Channel based fabric director, storage over IP
router, WDM modules, and be fully fault tolerant system with an up time of
99.999%.

o Continue Providing Network Connectivity Products. Our legacy products include
network interface, or "adapter," cards that allow computers, servers, load
balancers and other devices to connect to a local area network ("LAN"). These
network interface cards support both the widely employed fast Ethernet protocol
and the emerging gigabit Ethernet protocol. Our products have already achieved
acceptance among server and other network products OEMs.

o Focus on OEMs and emerging storage service providers. We plan to sell our
products primarily to large storage and networking OEMs. A secondary target is
the emerging storage utility providers such as Storage Service Providers
("SSPs"), integrators, carriers, Internet Service Providers ("ISPs") and others.
In Europe, Japan, Korea

                                       1

and the rest of the Far East, we plan to use value added resellers.

Markets for Entrada's Products

Our products address the growing connectivity needs for networked high bandwidth
data communications. The networking industry has experienced dramatic growth
since the early 1990's as corporations discovered increasing value in connecting
desktop devices through local area networks. The emergence of the Internet as a
cost-efficient data transport medium has accelerated this movement and moved the
revenue opportunity beyond the LAN to the MAN and WAN environments. Our products
address the demand for connectivity solutions in the traditional data networking
markets plus the emerging market for storage area networking. There can be no
assurance that any of the projections cited in the following discussion
regarding the growth of traditional data networking markets or of the storage
area networking market will prove accurate.

Storage Area Networking Market

The technology behind storage area networks is similar to that of LANs and WANs.
Storage area networks are essentially separate local area networks that consist
of servers, storage devices (such as disc drives) and the networking equipment
used to connect and route traffic among them. These devices include adapters,
hubs, switches and routers supporting the Fibre Channel standard. Storage area
networks create a shared storage resource that is readily available, highly
scalable and designed to be easily protected and managed.

IDC (International Data Corporation), a provider of analysis and market data for
the Information Technology ("IT") industry, projects that the amount of disk
storage capacity being shipped by vendors will grow by 86% per year, from
116,000 terabytes in 1998 to 2.6 million terabytes in 2003. IDC projects storage
capacity based on the UNIX operating system to grow 76% annually to nearly
460,000 terabytes in 2002 and storage capacity based on the Windows NT operating
system to increase by 114% annually to more than 610,000 terabytes in 2002. The
Yankee Group, a research and consulting firm which focuses on e-business, the
Internet, and enterprise applications, reports that storage is now the biggest
line item in the IT budgets of corporations interviewed.

While storage area networks are not new, we believe that trends already under
way will move them into the mainstream of distributed networking and that they
will become the standard way of accessing stored information. A report by
Dataquest, an IT market research and consulting firm, projects sales of the
networking equipment used to build storage area networks to reach $5.4 billion
by 2003, representing a cumulative annual growth rate of 87%. In addition, the
Gartner Group, a market research & consulting firm, forecasts that 80% of the
world's storage will be connected to a SAN by 2004.

The SAN Transport Market

We believe we are a pioneer in the SAN transport market with our Silverline'TM'
switches. A sub-segment of the overall SAN market, SAN transport is also known
as SAN connectivity or SAN extension. The growth in this market is directly
related to the growth of SANs and can be measured by the ports devoted to
connecting the SAN to local, metro and wide area networks. We expect the number
of interfaces devoted to connecting SANs to grow rapidly in the coming years.
Recent research suggests that the total number of SAN extension connections will
grow from 90,000 in calendar 2001 to almost 900,000 in calendar 2003. The market
for SAN extensions needing optical connections is expected to grow from 2,500 in
calendar 2001 to 210,000 in calendar 2003. And the market for extensions in the
SAN over IP market, where our Silverline'TM' product is aimed, is expected to
grow from 12,600 in 2001 to 690,000 in 2003.

Sales and Marketing

Our current sales and marketing activities are concentrated on gaining customer
acceptance of the Silverline'TM' switches by large storage OEMs and increasing
market and account penetration for the existing network connectivity product
lines whose customers are primarily OEM computer and peripheral vendors. The
sales and marketing teams are led by the Vice President of Sales and the Vice
President of Marketing, respectively.

<PAGE>

Our sales and marketing organization at January 31, 2001 consisted of 24
individuals, including managers, sales representatives, and support personnel.
The current channel mix is approximately 90% OEM and 10% indirect. We support
our customers by providing product training, regular mailing of promotional and
technical material, telephone and other technical support. Our marketing staff
also engages in a number of marketing communication activities including public
relations, advertising, trade shows, seminars and internet/electronic marketing.

Customers and Markets

Our sales and marketing strategy is focused on communicating key benefits of SAN
transport to both our OEM customer base and the end-user market that the OEMs
service. In summary, we are sending the message that SAN transport will:

o    Efficiently protect more data than IT Managers can with isolated SAN
     islands

o    Easily and efficiently deploy more corporate information, anywhere in the
     company

o    Leverage the company's investment in an existing IP network infrastructure

o    Utilize existing bandwidth for "cost-free" backup. If existing IP network
     is idle during off-hours (e. g., midnight to 6 am), bandwidth and
     infrastructure can be used for free. Silverline'TM'can even help leverage
     underutilized IP network capacity.

o    Lower total cost of ownership with a high performance to price ratio

For fiscal 2001, one customer accounted for 40.0% of our net sales, and
another customer accounted for 25.2% of our net sales.

Customer Service and Support

Our customer service organization is structured to assist OEM and system
integrator accounts. Post-sales support for all of our customers include product
warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The length of product
warranties varies by product, from 12 months in some instances, to 60 months for
a broad range of products, and previously, lifetime warranties for certain
legacy products. Telephone technical support programs for hardware and software
generally cover the first 12 months from purchase. On-site support and shared
support agreements are designed to provide a high level of service to fulfill a
broad spectrum of customer needs.

Research and Development

As of January 31, 2001, there were 36 employees and 7 independent contractors
working in our research and development area. Our research and development
expenditures were $6.8 million for the fiscal year 2001 ended January 31, 2001.

Our research and development efforts are targeted to achieve technological
advances that will allow us to introduce innovative products to market. Product
introduction is driven by a combination of rapidly evolving technology and
standards, as well as changing customer requirements. Our R&D team works closely
with our systems engineering staff, performing continuous evaluations of
customer needs, emerging trends and technical challenges in order to identify
new market opportunities. And, our research and development program focuses on
combining of various proprietary technologies into a single, common,
standards-based platform. We believe that our ability to introduce new products
on a timely basis depends upon our ability to maintain advanced technology
research programs while simultaneously focusing on their practical application
to our customers' strategic requirements.

The development team runs concurrent multiple parallel development efforts. The
staff is now capable of conducting maintenance of the current product release,
development of a follow-on release, design of new interfaces for each of these
products, and advanced development of a new product. The size of our development
team allows us to provide appropriate service to existing customers as well as
develop new and enhanced product offerings.

In addition to engineers working on near-term product development and testing,
we maintain a team of engineers and scientists devoted to long-term, advanced
developments. Included on this team are two Ph.D.s, not including Dr.

backgrounds in optics, communications, complex systems and software design,
simulations and modeling.

Manufacturing and Quality

We get our products manufactured on an outsourced basis from various contract
manufacturers. Final assembly, test and quality assurance are performed by us at
our Annapolis Junction, Maryland facility.

Our manufacturing strategy is to outsource all repetitive operations to
top-tier, third party manufacturers. These manufacturers provide us with access
to enhanced supply chain agreements, volume purchasing power, a lower cost labor
base, and improved quality and process control. We concurrently undertake
manufacturing engineering with development engineering to ensure that reliable,
high yield and low cost manufacturing processes that meet our customers'
manufacturing standards are designed into our products from inception. We
perform final integration and testing at our Annapolis Junction, Maryland,
facility.

We actively manage our components supply chain. Silverline'TM' and network
connectivity product assemblies consist of approximately 500 individual part
types, and all of these parts have been qualified to current, purchasing
customers' standards. For approximately 90% of these parts we have qualified
second or third sources in place.

We believe that our strategy of outsourcing the majority of our manufacturing
activities to third party contract manufacturers enables us to react quickly to
market demand and avoid the significant capital investment that would be
required to establish and maintain full manufacturing facilities. We are
therefore able to focus our manufacturing resources on final assembly, burn-in
and final testing to ensure reliability and quality assurance for our products.
We have a quality assurance program in place and continually evaluate this
process to ensure quality practices throughout the organization and to monitor
the performance of our third party vendors.

Working Capital Practices

We have historically maintained high levels of inventories to meet the output
requirements of our customers and to ensure an uninterrupted flow of inputs from
our suppliers. As of January 31, 2001, we had 96 days of inventory on hand.

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of each of our customers' financial
condition and we extend unsecured credit related to the sales of various
products. As of January 31, 2001, three customers accounted for 37%, 13% and 12%
of net receivables. One customer accounted for 39% of net receivables at
January 31, 2000. Days sales outstanding was at 53 days at January 31, 2001.

Forward-Looking Statements--Cautionary Statement

Certain statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, in our future filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in our press releases and in our
oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer are
forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, Part II, Item 7 -
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" of this form 10-K. These forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, are not historical facts but rather reflect

<PAGE>

We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently
anticipated or projected. These risks and uncertainties are described in the
following section. We specifically decline any obligation to publicly release
the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements
to reflect anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances occurring after
the date of such statements, or to update the reasons why actual results could
differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Risk Factors

In connection with the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Reform
Act of 1995 we are hereby identifying important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statements made by us or on our behalf. Any such statement is qualified by
reference to the following cautionary statements:

o    Our industry is highly competitive, and we may not have the resources
     required to compete successfully. The market for SAN transport equipment as
     well as our other products is extremely competitive and we expect
     competition to intensify in the future. Our primary sources of competition
     include 3COM, Adaptec, Cisco Systems, Inc., Finisar, Emulex, Intel
     Corporation, Interphase, SAN Valley, SAN Castle, Brocade Communications
     Systems, Inc., CNT, Gadzoox Networks, Inc., Vixel, ADVA, ONI Systems
     Corporation, and many other companies. We may also face competition from a
     number of other companies that have announced plans for new products to
     address the same problems that our products address. Many of our current
     and potential competitors have significantly greater sales and marketing,
     technical, manufacturing, financial and other resources as well as greater
     name recognition and larger customer base than us. Our competitors may have
     more extensive customer relationships than us, including relationships with
     our potential customers. In particular, established companies in the
     telecommunications equipment or computing industries may seek to expand
     their product offerings by designing and selling products using competitive
     technology that could render our products obsolete or have a material
     adverse effect on our sales.

     We operate in a market segment where emerging companies enter the markets
     in which we are competing and new products and technologies are introduced.
     Increased competition may result in further price reductions, reduced gross
     margins and loss of market share, any of which could materially and
     adversely affect its business, operating results and financial condition.
     There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully
     against current and future competitors, or that the competitive factors we
     will face will not have a material adverse effect on our business,
     operating results and financial condition.

o    Our business will be seriously harmed if we are not able to develop and
     commercialize new or enhanced products. Our growth depends on our ability
     to successfully develop new or enhanced products. The development of new or
     enhanced products is a complex and uncertain process that requires the
     accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. Our next
     generation of storage transport and network management products as well as
     our wavelength division multiplexing products are currently under
     development. We cannot be sure whether these or other new products will be
     successfully developed and introduced to the market on a timely basis or at
     all. We will need to complete each of the following steps to successfully
     commercialize these and any other new products: complete product
     development, qualify and establish component suppliers, validate
     manufacturing methods, conduct extensive quality assurance and reliability
     testing, complete any software validation, and demonstrate systems
     interoperability.

     Each of these steps presents serious risks of failure, rework or delay, any
     one of which could adversely affect the rate at which we are able to
     introduce and market our products. If we do not develop these products in a
     timely manner, our competitive position and financial condition could be
     adversely affected.

     In addition, as we introduce new or enhanced products, we must also manage
     the transition from older products to newer products. If we fail to do so,
     we may disrupt customer ordering patterns or may not be able to ensure


                                       5







<PAGE>


     that adequate supplies of new products can be delivered to meet anticipated
     customer demand. Any failure to effectively manage this transition may
     cause us to lose current and prospective customers.

o    Our future growth depends on our ability to attract new customers, and on
     our customers' ability to sell additional services to their own customers.
     Most of our potential customers evaluate storage area products for
     deployment in large systems. There are only a relatively limited number of
     potential customers for our products. If we are not selected by a potential
     customer for particular system projects, our business may be seriously
     harmed. Similarly, our growth depends on our customers' success in selling
     integrated solutions based on our products and complementary products from
     others. Our success will depend on our ability to effectively anticipate
     and adapt to customer requirements and offer products and services that
     meet customer demands. Any failure of our current or prospective customers
     to purchase products from us for any reason, including a downturn in their
     business, would seriously harm our ability to grow our business.

o    The time that our customers and potential customers require for testing and
     qualification before purchasing our networking products can be long and
     variable, which may cause our results of operations to be unpredictable.
     Before purchasing our products, potential customers must undertake a
     lengthy evaluation, testing and product qualification process. In addition,
     potential customers require time-consuming field trials of our products.
     Our sales effort requires the effective demonstration of the benefits of
     our products to, and significant training of, potential customers. In
     addition, even after deciding to purchase our products, our customers may
     take several years to deploy our products. The timing of deployment depends
     on many factors, including the sophistication of a customer and the
     complexity and size of a customer's networks. Our sales cycle, which is the
     period from the time a sales lead is generated until the recognition of
     revenue, can often be longer than one year. The length and variability of
     our sales cycle is influenced by a variety of factors beyond our control,
     including: our customers' buildout and deployment schedules, our customers'
     access to product purchase financing, our customers' needs for functional
     demonstration and field trials, and the manufacturing lead time for our
     products. Because our sales cycles are long and variable, our results of
     operations may be unpredictable.

o    Our products may have errors or defects that we find only after deployment,
     which could seriously harm our business. Our products can only be fully
     tested after deployment in storage area networks. Our customers may
     discover errors or defects in our products, and our products may not
     operate as expected. If we are unable to fix errors or other problems that
     may be identified, we could experience: loss of or delay in revenues and
     loss of market share, loss of customers, failure to attract new customers
     or achieve market acceptance, diversion of engineering resources, increased
     service and warranty costs, and legal actions by our customers. Any failure
     of our current or planned products to operate as expected could delay or
     prevent their adoption and seriously harm our business.

o    If our products do not interoperate with our customers' systems,
     installations will be delayed or cancelled or our products could be
     returned. Many of our customers require that our products be designed to
     interoperate with their existing networks, each of which may have different
     specifications and utilize a variety of protocols. Our customers' networks
     contain multiple generations of products that have been added over time as
     these networks have grown and evolved. Our products must interoperate with
     all of the products within these networks as well as future products in
     order to meet our customers' requirements. If we are required to modify our
     product design to be compatible with our customers' systems to achieve a
     sale, it may result in a longer sales cycle, increased research and
     development expense and reduced margins on our products. If our products do
     not interoperate with those of our customers' networks, installations could
     be delayed, orders for our products could be cancelled or our products
     could be returned, any of which could seriously harm our business.

o    If we fail to complete certain strategic opportunities, our business may be
     harmed. Strategic opportunities such as the sale or spin-off of certain
     business units are important to our overall business plan. We cannot be
     certain that we will be able to complete transactions on terms that are
     favorable to us. In addition, we cannot be certain that we will be
     successful in negotiating and completing future sales or spin-offs. Our
     business may be harmed if we fail to successfully complete such
     transactions.


                                       6







<PAGE>


o    If we fail to establish and successfully maintain strategic alliances, our
     business may be harmed. Strategic alliances are an important part of our
     effort to expand our sales opportunities and technological capabilities. We
     cannot be certain that we will be able to enter strategic alliances on
     terms that are favorable to us. Our business may be harmed if we fail to
     establish and maintain strategic alliances.

o    Our business may be seriously harmed if we are unable to establish
     successful relationships with distributors and systems integrators. We
     believe that our future success is dependent upon our ability to establish
     successful relationships with a variety of distributors and systems
     integrators. As we expand internationally, we will increasingly depend on
     distributors and systems integrators. If we are unable to establish and
     expand these relationships, we may not be able to increase market awareness
     or sales of our products, which may prevent us from achieving and
     maintaining profitability.

o    Our business may be seriously harmed if the market for storage area
     networking products does not develop as we expect. Our current and future
     product offerings are focused on the needs of providers that service
     storage area networks. The market for storage area networking products is
     new, and we cannot be certain that a viable market for our products will
     develop or be sustainable. If this market does not develop, or develops
     more slowly than we expect, our business may be seriously harmed.
     Furthermore, the storage area networking industry is subject to rapid
     technological change and newer technology or products developed by others
     could render our products non-competitive or obsolete. In developing our
     products, we have made, and will continue to make, assumptions about the
     networking standards that our customers and competitors may adopt. If the
     standards adopted are different from those that we have chosen to support,
     market acceptance of our products would be significantly reduced and our
     business will be seriously harmed.

o    We depend upon contract manufacturers and any disruption in these
     relationships may cause us to fail to meet the demands of our customers and
     damage our customer relationships. We use contract manufacturers to
     manufacture and assemble our products in accordance with our
     specifications. We do not have long-term contracts with any of them, and
     none of them are obligated to perform services for us for any specific
     period or at any specified price, except as may be provided in a particular
     purchase order. We may not be able to effectively manage our relationships
     with these manufacturers and they may not meet our future requirements for
     timely delivery or provide us with the quality of products that we and our
     customers require.

     Each of our contract manufacturers also builds products for other
     companies. We cannot be certain that they will always have sufficient
     quantities of inventory available to fill our orders, or that they will
     allocate their internal resources to fill these orders on a timely basis.
     Qualifying a new contract manufacturer and commencing volume production is
     expensive and time consuming and could result in a significant interruption
     in the supply of our products. If we are required to change contract
     manufacturers, we may suffer delays that could lead to the loss of revenue
     and damage our customer relationships.

o    We rely on a limited number of suppliers for some of our components, and
     our business may be seriously harmed if our supply of any of these
     components is disrupted. We and our contract manufacturers currently
     purchase several key components of our products from a limited number of
     suppliers. We purchase each of these components on a purchase order basis
     and have no long-term contracts for these components. In addition, the
     availability of many of these components to us is dependent in part by our
     ability to provide suppliers with accurate forecasts of our future
     requirements. In the event of a disruption in supply or if we receive an
     unexpectedly high level of purchase orders, we may not be able to develop
     an alternate source in a timely manner or at favorable prices. Any of these
     events could hurt our ability to deliver our products to our customers and
     negatively affect our operating margins. In addition, our reliance on our
     suppliers exposes us to potential supplier production difficulties or
     quality variations. Any such disruption in supply would seriously impact
     our present and future sales.

o    If we are unable to hire or retain highly skilled personnel, we may not be
     able to operate our business successfully. Our future success depends upon
     the continued services of our key management, sales and marketing, and
     engineering personnel, many of whom have significant industry experience
     and relationships. Many of our personnel, in particular, Dr. Kanwar J.S.
     Chadha, our President and Chief Executive Officer, would


                                       7







<PAGE>


     be difficult to replace. We do not have "key person" life insurance
     policies covering any of our personnel. The loss of the services of any of
     our key personnel could delay the development and introduction of, and
     negatively impact our ability to sell, our products. In addition, we will
     need to hire additional personnel for most areas of our business, including
     our sales and marketing and engineering operations. Competition for highly
     skilled personnel is intense in our industry, and we may not be able to
     attract and retain qualified personnel, which could seriously harm our
     business.

o    We may be unable to protect our intellectual property, which could limit
     our ability to compete. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright,
     trademark and trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure to protect
     our intellectual property rights. We also enter into confidentiality or
     license agreements with our employees, consultants and corporate partners,
     and control access to, and distribution of, our software, documentation and
     other proprietary information. Despite our efforts to protect our
     proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise
     obtain and use our products or technology. Monitoring unauthorized use of
     our products is difficult, and we cannot be certain that the steps we have
     taken will prevent unauthorized use of our technology, particularly in
     foreign countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as
     fully as in the United States. If competitors gain access to our
     technology, our ability to compete could be harmed.

o    We could become subject to litigation regarding intellectual property
     rights, which could seriously harm our business and require us to incur
     significant costs. In recent years, there has been significant litigation
     in the United States involving patents and other intellectual property
     rights. We may be a party to litigation in the future to protect our
     intellectual property or as a result of an allegation that we infringe
     others' intellectual property. Any parties asserting that our products
     infringe upon their proprietary rights would force us to defend ourselves
     and possibly our customers or manufacturers against the alleged
     infringement. These claims and any resulting lawsuits, if successful, could
     subject us to significant liability for damages and invalidation of our
     proprietary rights. Additionally, any claims and lawsuits, regardless of
     their merits, would likely be time-consuming and expensive to resolve and
     would divert management time and attention.

     Any claims of infringement of the intellectual property of others could
     also force us to do one or more of the following: stop selling,
     incorporating or using our products that use the challenged intellectual
     property; obtain from the owner of the infringed intellectual property
     right a license to sell or use the relevant technology, which may not be
     available to us on reasonable terms, or at all; or redesign those products
     that use such technology. If we are forced to take any of the foregoing
     actions, our business may be seriously harmed.

o    If necessary licenses of third-party technology are not available to us or
     are very expensive, our products could become obsolete. We may be required
     to license technology from third parties to develop new products or product
     enhancements. We cannot assure you that third-party licenses will be
     available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If we are
     required to obtain any third-party licenses to develop new products and
     product enhancements, we could be required to obtain substitute technology,
     which could result in lower performance or greater cost, either of which
     could seriously harm the competitiveness of our products.

o    The markets that our products address are governed by regulations and
     evolving industry standards. The market that we sell and deploy our
     products into is characterized as being highly regulated and industry
     standards intensive, with many standards evolving as new technologies are
     deployed. In the United States, our products must comply with various
     regulations defined by the Federal Communications Commission and standards
     established Underwriters Laboratories. In addition, there are industry
     standards established by various organizations such as Fibre Channel
     Industry Association, American National Standards Institute, and Internet
     Engineering Task Force. We design our products to comply with those
     industry standards so that each particular product can be accepted by its
     intended customers and we are not aware of any standards based product
     modifications currently required. To the extent non-compliance with such
     standards has a detrimental effect on customer acceptance, we must address
     such non-compliance in the design of our products. Standards for new
     services and network management are still evolving. We are a member of
     several standards committees, which enables us to participate in the
     development of standards for emerging technologies. However, as the
     standards evolve, we will be required to modify our products or develop and
     support new versions of ours products. The failure of our products to
     comply or delays in compliance, with the various existing and evolving
     industry


                                       8







<PAGE>


     standards could delay introduction and acceptance of our products, which
     could materially and adversely affect the our business, operating results
     and financial condition.

     In foreign countries, our products may be subject to a wide variety of
     governmental review and certification requirements. If we fail to conform
     our products to these regulatory requirements, we could lose sales and our
     business could be seriously harmed. Additionally, any failure of our
     products to comply with relevant regulations could delay their introduction
     and require costly and time-consuming engineering changes.

o    We are subject to various risks associated with international sales and
     operations. We expect that we will eventually have international sales.
     These sales will be subject to a number of risks, including: changes in
     foreign government regulations and telecommunications standards, import and
     export license requirements, tariffs, taxes and other trade barriers,
     fluctuations in currency exchange rates, difficulty in collecting accounts
     receivable, the burden of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws,
     treaties and technical standards, difficulty in staffing and managing
     foreign operations, and political and economic instability.

     All of our sales have been denominated in U.S. dollars. All of our expenses
     are denominated in the U.S. dollar, however in the future a portion of our
     sales could also be denominated in non-U.S. currencies. As a result,
     currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which
     we would do business could cause foreign currency translation gains or
     losses that we would recognize in the period incurred. We cannot predict
     the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our future operating results
     because of the number of currencies involved, the variability of currency
     exposure and the potential volatility of currency exchange rates. We do not
     currently engage in foreign exchange hedging transactions to manage our
     foreign currency exposure.

o    Our future revenues are unpredictable and our financial results may
     fluctuate. Our revenue and operating results could fluctuate substantially
     from quarter to quarter and from year to year. This could result from any
     one or a combination of factors such as the cancellation or postponement of
     orders, the timing and amount of significant orders from our largest
     customers, our success in developing, introducing and shipping product
     enhancements and new products, the mix of products we sell, new product
     introductions by competitors, pricing actions taken by us or our
     competitors, the timing of delivery and availability of components from
     suppliers, changes in material costs and general economic conditions.

o    Our backlog at any point may not be a good indicator of expected revenues.
     Our backlog at the beginning of each quarter typically is not sufficient to
     achieve expected sales for the quarter. To achieve our sales objective, we
     are dependent upon obtaining orders during each quarter for shipment during
     that quarter. Furthermore, our agreements with our customers typically
     provide that they may change delivery schedules and cancel orders within
     specified time frames, typically 30 days or more prior to the scheduled
     shipment date, without significant penalty. Our customers have in the past
     built, and may in the future, build significant inventory in order to
     facilitate more rapid deployment of anticipated major projects or for other
     reasons. Decisions by such customers to reduce their inventory levels have
     led and could lead to reductions in purchases from us. These reductions, in
     turn, have and could cause fluctuations in our operating results and have
     had and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition
     and results of operations in periods in which the inventory is reduced.

     Our backlog on January 31, 2001 was approximately $2.7 million, compared
     with a backlog of $3.1 million at January 31, 2000. We include in our
     backlog only orders confirmed with a purchase order for products to be
     shipped within twelve months to customers with approved credit status.

o    Seasonality. Our sales are impacted by the buying patterns of our
     customers, including but not limited to cultural and religious holidays in
     Asia, Europe and the United States, and other factors. Our sales have
     historically been weaker in the first half of a fiscal year and stronger in
     the second half.

o    Our business may be adversely affected by competitive pressures, which we
     must react to. The industry we compete in is characterized by declining
     prices of existing products, therefore continual improvements of
     manufacturing efficiencies and introduction of new products and
     enhancements to existing products are required


                                       9







<PAGE>


     to maintain gross margins. In response to customer demands or competitive
     pressures, or to pursue new product or market opportunities, we may take
     certain pricing or marketing actions, such as price reductions, volume
     discounts, or provisions of services at below market rates. These actions
     could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and
     financial condition.

o    If we do not effectively manage our growth, we may not be able to
     successfully expand our business. Growth of our business will place a
     significant strain on our management systems and resources. Our ability to
     successfully offer our products and implement our business plan in a
     rapidly evolving market requires an effective planning and management
     process. We will need to continue to improve our financial, managerial and
     manufacturing process and reporting systems, and will need to continue to
     expand, train and manage our workforce worldwide. Failure to effectively
     manage our growth and address the above requirements, it could affect our
     ability to pursue business opportunities and expand our business.

o    We have incurred net losses over the last five years and may experience
     future losses. We have incurred losses from continuing operation during the
     years ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 of $10.6 million, $3.4 million
     and $3.7 million, respectively. We have financed these losses through a
     combination of debt issuances, bank lines of credit and security
     placements. We believe we have sufficient working capital to meet our
     planned level of operations in the future. However, there can be no
     assurance that our working capital requirements will not exceed our ability
     to generate sufficient cash internally to support our requirements and the
     needed capital will have to be obtained from external sources. We cannot
     give any assurances that sufficient working capital, at terms acceptable to
     us, will be available when needed.

o    A substantial number of our ordinary shares are eligible for future sale.
     No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of
     common stock that we may make, or the availability of common stock for
     future sales, will have on the market price of common stock prevailing from
     time to time. Sales of a substantial number of shares of common stock in
     the public market could adversely affect the market price for our common
     stock and reported earnings per share.

o    Availability of Raw Materials. Many of our products require components that
     may not be readily available. These include microprocessors, custom
     integrated circuits and other electronic components. To minimize the risks
     of component or product shortages, we attempt to maintain multiple supply
     sources. However, there can be no assurance that such sources will be
     adequate to meet our needs.

o    Patents, Trademarks and Licenses. We currently hold nine patents. Although
     we attempt to protect our intellectual property rights through patents,
     trademarks, and copyrights, by maintaining certain technology as trade
     secrets and by other measures, we cannot assure you that any patent,
     trademark, copyright or other intellectual property rights owned by us will
     not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged; that such intellectual
     property rights will provide competitive advantages to us; or that any of
     our future patent applications, if any, will be issued with the scope of
     the claims sought by us, if at all. We cannot assure you that others will
     not develop technologies that are similar or superior to our technology, or
     that our competitors will not duplicate our technology or "design around"
     the patents that we own. In addition, effective patent, copyright and trade
     secret protection may be unavailable or limited in certain foreign
     countries in which we do business or intend to do business in the future.

     We believe that the future success of our business will depend on our
     ability to translate the technological expertise and innovation of our
     personnel into new and enhanced products. We cannot assure you that the
     steps taken by us will prevent misappropriation of our technology. In the
     future, we may take legal action to enforce its patents and other
     intellectual property rights, to protect its trade secrets, to determine
     the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, or to defend
     against claims of infringement or invalidity. Such litigation could result
     in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could harm our business
     and operating results.

     As is common in our industry, we have from time to time received
     notification from other companies claiming that certain of our products may
     infringe intellectual property rights held by such companies. Any claim or
     litigation, with or without merit, could be costly, time consuming and
     could result in a diversion of


                                       10







<PAGE>


     management's attention, which could harm our business. If we were found to
     be infringing the intellectual property rights of any third party, we could
     be subject to liabilities for such infringement, which could be material,
     and could be required to seek licenses from other companies or to refrain
     from using, manufacturing or selling certain products or using certain
     processes. Although holders of patents and other intellectual property
     rights often offer licenses to their patent or other intellectual property
     rights, no assurance can be given that licenses would be offered, that the
     terms of any offered license would be acceptable to us or that failure to
     obtain a license would not cause its operating results to suffer.

o    Environmental Compliance. Our operations are subject to various federal,
     state and local laws and regulations with respect to environmental matters.
     We believe that we are in material compliance with all such federal, state
     and local laws and regulations.

o    Employees. As of January 31, 2001 we employed 142 full-time employees and
     independent contractors, including 43 in engineering, 48 in manufacturing
     and quality assurance, 24 in sales and marketing, 26 in administration, and
     1 executive. None of our employees are represented by a collective
     bargaining agreement, and the Company believes that relations with its
     employees are good.

o    Fluctuations in Revenue and Operating Results. The industries we operate in
     are subject to fluctuation. Our operating results may fluctuate as a result
     of a number of factors, including the timing of orders from, and shipments
     to, customers; the timing of new product introductions and the market
     acceptance of those products; increased competition; changes in
     manufacturing costs; availability of parts; changes in the mix of product
     sales; the rate of end-user adoption and carrier and private network
     deployment of SAN solutions; factors associated with international
     operations; and changes in world economic conditions.

Definitions

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following terms have the
meanings indicated:

"Broadband" means a set of technologies that provide several paths for
transmitting text, graphics, voice or video data so that different types of data
can be transmitted simultaneously and, depending on the technology deployed, at
different speeds and protocols.

"CWDM" means Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing, which is a sophisticated
optoelectronics technology that uses multiple wavelengths of light very
efficiently to greatly increase the number of video, data or voice channels of
information that can be sent on a single optical fiber in a transmission system.
CWDM has a wider wavelength range than DWDM and permits the use of lower cost
lasers and components.

"DWDM" means Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing, which is a sophisticated
optoelectronics technology that uses multiple wavelengths of light very
efficiently to greatly increase the number of video, data or voice channels of

"ESCON" means Enterprise System CONnection, a protocol for 200 Mbps signal
transmission speed over fiber optic cable.

"Ethernet" means a 10 Mbps speed network that runs over thick coaxial cable
(10BASE5), thin coaxial cable (10BASE2), twisted-pair (10BASE-T), and
fiber-optic cable. It is the most widely used LAN technology and the most
popular form of Ethernet is 10BASE-T. Ethernet is network specification that was
developed at Xerox Corp's Palo Alto Research Center, and made into a network
standard by Digital, Intel, and Xerox.

"Fast Ethernet" means a 100 Mbps speed network that runs over thick coax,
twisted-pair, and fiber-optic cable. Fast Ethernet is 10 times faster than
Ethernet.

"FDDI" means a Fiber Distributed Data Interface and is a fiber optic network
that supports transmission speeds up to 100 Mbps.

"Multiplexing" means a process that combines a number of lower speed data
transmissions into one high-speed data transmission by splitting that total
available bandwidth into narrower bands (frequency division) or by allotting a
common channel to several different transmitting devices one at a time in
sequence (time division).

</TABLE>

We believe that our existing and planned facilities are and will remain adequate
for the foreseeable future. Our Irvine, California facility is associated with
our frame relay business unit, which is being discontinued. The Company has
recognized $0.8 million of estimated net facility costs for the remainder of the
Irvine facility lease as part of estimated loss on disposal of discontinued
segment. Our Norton, Massachusetts facility is unoccupied and is also associated
with the discontinued segment.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we are involved in various other legal proceedings and claims
incidental to the conduct of our business. Although it is impossible to predict
the outcome of any outstanding legal proceedings, we believe that such legal
proceedings and claims, individually and in the aggregate, are not likely to
have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations or
cash flows.

Subsequent to the August 30, 2000 annual meeting, our shareholders voted to
adopt the Entrada Networks, Inc. 2000 Stock Incentive Plan. Our Board of
Directors approved the plan on September 29, 2000, and rather than incur the
expense of a special meeting of stockholders to approve the plan, we solicited
the consents of two stockholders who owned a majority of our outstanding common
stock. Those two stockholders, Sorrento Networks Corporation and Vision
Eventures, Inc., collectively owned 5,569,876 shares of our common stock. As of
October 12, 2000, the record date for the consent, we had 10,997,075 shares
outstanding, so those two stockholders held 50.64% of our outstanding common
stock. We are incorporated in Delaware, and the Delaware General Corporation Law
permits stockholder approval to be obtained without a meeting provided that
consents are given by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the
minimum number of votes that would be necessary to approve the action at a
meeting at which all shares eligible to be voted were present and voted. A
majority of our outstanding shares would be sufficient to approve the plan;
thus, the consents we obtained were sufficient to satisfy the requirement for
stockholder approval.

On March 30, 2001, the closing sale price for our common stock was $1.08 per
share. There is no assurance that a market in our common stock will continue.

As of March 30, 2001 (the latest practicable date) there were 938 shareholders
of record, including brokerage firms and nominees, of our common stock, and more
than 13,000 beneficial shareholders.

We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock. Our present credit
facility contains covenants which preclude the payment of dividends. The present
policy of the Board of Directors is to retain all available funds to finance
the planned level of operations. In light of the anticipated cash needs of our
business, it is not anticipated that any cash dividends will be paid to the
holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including,
without limitation, statements containing the words "believes", "anticipates",
"estimates", "expects", and words of similar import constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Readers are referred to the "Risk Factors" section of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K contained herein, which identifies important risk factors
that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the
forward-looking statements.

The results of operations reflect our activities and our wholly-owned
subsidiaries; this consolidated group is referred to individually and
collectively as "We" and "Our".

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated audited financial
statements and related notes thereto.

The Company is the product of a reverse merger completed on August 31, 2000 with
a wholly owned subsidiary of Sorrento Networks Corporation. This subsidiary was
doing business as Entrada Networks. We acquired all the outstanding capital of
Entrada Networks for 4.24 million of our common shares and issued an additional
2.43 million shares for cash of $8.0 million. Entrada Networks' obligation to
its former parent of $25.5 million was contributed to our capital as part of the
merger. As a result of the merger, the former parent of Entrada Networks held a
majority interest in the combined entity, which was renamed Entrada Networks,
Inc. from Sync Research, Inc. Accordingly, the merger has been accounted for as
a reverse merger, whereby Entrada Networks is deemed to have purchased Sync,
however Sync remains the legal entity and Registrant for Security and Exchange
Commission reporting purposes and the financial statements of the combined
entity now reflect the historical financial information of Entrada Networks
prior to August 31, 2000. Subsequent to the merger the former parent of Entrada
Networks has disposed of 4.56 million of its shares of our common stock
including those it distributed to its shareholders and currently holds
approximately 20.1% of our common shares outstanding.

Our principal business is the business formerly operated by Entrada Networks,
and in September 2000, our Board of Directors concluded that the operations of
our frame relay business segment would not contribute to our profitability or
toward our goal of entering the storage area networking market space and adopted
a formal plan to discontinue this business segment operated by Sync. Our
financial statements reflect the operations and financial position of the frame
relay business segment as a discontinued operation for all periods reported.
Unless otherwise specifically noted, this Annual Report refers to the Entrada
business and not to the former Sync business.

Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including,
without limitation, statements containing the words "believes", "anticipates",
"estimates", "expects", and words of similar import constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Readers are referred to the "Other Risk Factors" section of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as well as the "Financial Risk Management" and "Future
Growth Subject to Risks" sections contained herein, which identify important
risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in
the forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations: Comparison of the Years Ended January 31, 2001 and
January 31, 2000

Net sales. Our consolidated net sales from continuing operations were $25.7
million for fiscal 2001, compared with $28.8 million for fiscal 2000. The
decrease in net sales for fiscal 2001 resulted primarily from decreased sales to
distributors of remote access and print server products, partially offset by
increased sales to OEMs of networking adapter products. The shift in sales
toward OEMs reflects our focus on expanding sales to OEMs and the roll out of
our new generation products. We expect our net sales for the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 to be approximately $1.1 million to $1.3 million. We believe that we
will have lower sales in early 2002 primarily due to adverse economic conditions
worldwide and in our market segment in particular.

Gross profit. Cost of sales consists principally of the costs of components,
subcontract assembly from outside manufacturers, and in-house system
integration, quality control, final testing and configuration costs. Gross
profit decreased to $6.8 million for the fiscal 2001 from $11.3 million for
fiscal 2000. The gross profit of $6.8 million for the fiscal 2001 is net of a
$2.8 million valuation adjustment comprising $0.6 million for print servers,
$0.6 million for remote access servers and $1.6 million for other legacy
products. Our gross margin, excluding the valuation adjustment, decreased to
37.6% for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2001 from 39.2% for fiscal 2000. The
decline in gross margins resulted from increased sales to OEM customers that
have lower margins than sales to distributors as well as transitions from legacy
products in anticipation of the merger of Sync and Entrada Networks.

Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of
employee compensation and related costs, commissions to sales representatives,
tradeshow expenses and travel expenses. Selling and marketing expenses decreased
to $5.2 million for fiscal 2001 from $5.6 million for fiscal 2000. The reduction
in selling and marketing costs reflects personnel reductions resulting from the
closure in May 2000 of our Massachusetts facility as well as personnel
reductions in anticipation of the merger of Sync and Entrada Networks. As a
percentage of sales, selling and marketing expenses increased to 20.3% for
fiscal 2001, from 19.6% for fiscal 2000. The increase in selling and marketing
costs as a percentage of sales is due to lower sales for fiscal 2000 compared
with the prior year. We intend to increase expenditures for sales and marketing
including the recruitment of additional sales and

                                       18

marketing personnel, the expansion of our domestic and international
distribution channels and the establishment of strategic relationships. In
addition, we expect sales commissions to increase as we increase our sales
volume.

Engineering, research and development. Engineering, research and development
expenses consist primarily of compensation related costs for engineering
personnel, facilities costs, and materials used in the design, development and
support of our technologies. All research and development costs are expensed as
incurred. Engineering, research and development expenses increased to $6.8
million, or 26.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2001, compared with $6.2 million, or
21.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2000. The increase in research and development
expenses was primarily due to increased new product development costs, partially
offset by cost savings achieved through the consolidation of facilities. We
expect research and development expenses to continue to increase as we enter the
SAN market space. In addition, due to changing market conditions, we wrote off
capitalized software development costs to research and development expenses of
$1.0 million and $1.8 million during fiscal years 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Exclusive of the valuation allowance, engineering research and development
expenses were 22.8% and 15.4% of net sales in fiscal years 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of employee compensation and related costs, legal and accounting fees,
public company costs, and allocable occupancy costs. General and administrative
expenses were $2.9 million, or 11.2% of net sales, for fiscal 2001, compared
with $2.2 million, or 7.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2000. The increase in
general and administrative expenses is primarily due to costs incurred in fiscal
2001 relating to the establishment of our headquarters facility in San Diego.
These additional expenses were partially offset by cost savings from the
consolidation of our facilities as well as the elimination of 37,000 square feet
of unused space leased at our Annapolis Junction, Maryland facility. As a result
of the merger and establishment of our headquarters in San Diego, we have added
a layer of senior management and will incur additional costs associated with
operating as a public company, including the costs of proxies, mailing, annual
reports and stockholders' meetings. These costs are incremental to our general
and administrative costs and will continue indefinitely.

Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses for fiscal 2001 include a
$1.4 million valuation reserve recorded against distributor receivables and $0.5
million of costs associated with the closure of our Massachusetts facility. We
reduced our staff by 39 through the closure of our Massachusetts facility and
other personnel reductions associated with a shift in our business focus to OEM
sales as well as in anticipation of our merger with Sync. It is anticipated that
the closure of the Massachusetts facility will reduce annual operating expenses
by at least $2.0 million.

Income taxes. There was no provision for income taxes for fiscal years 2001 and
2000. We have carry forwards of domestic federal net operating losses, which may
be available, in part, to reduce future taxable income in the United States.
However, the Internal Revenue Code limits the application of net operating loss
carry forwards in the event of ownership changes of greater than 50%. We have
had a change of ownership that will limit the amount of any net operating loss
carry forward we may use in a particular year. In addition, we provided a
valuation allowance in full for our deferred tax assets as it is our opinion
that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the assets will not
be realized.

Discontinued operations. Loss from discontinued operations was $0.2 million for
fiscal 2001. This represents the operating results of the former Sync Research,
Inc. frame relay business based in Irvine, California, for the five-month period
from September 1, 2000 through January 31, 2001. On September 29, 2000, after
completion of the merger on August 31, 2000, we entered into a plan to
discontinue the operations of the frame relay business segment.

Loss on disposal of discontinued operations of $10.4 million for fiscal 2001
represents estimated costs of disposing of the Company's frame relay business
based in Irvine, California. The estimated loss consists of $4.3 million of
goodwill recognized upon completion of the merger on August 31, 2000, $2.2
million for obsolescent inventory, $1.1 for vendor payables, $1.1 of severance
costs, $0.7 million for lease termination and $1.0 for various other estimated
costs for disposal of the business segment.

Results of Operations: Comparison of the Years Ended January 31, 2000 and
January 31, 1999

Net sales. Net sales decreased to $28.8 million, or by less than 1%, for fiscal
2000 from $29.0 million for fiscal 1999. While the sales to OEMs of our
LAN-adapter product lines increased, this increase was offset by the decrease in
the Remote Access and Print Server product lines during fiscal 2000 reflecting
Entrada's shift towards its new generation of products and the planned phase out
of its legacy products.

Gross profit. Gross profit decreased to $11.3 million for fiscal 2000 from $13.0
million for fiscal 1999. Gross margin decreased to 39.2% for fiscal 2000 from
44.7% for fiscal 1999. The gross margin percentage decrease was the result of
higher raw material costs associated with shipments of Entrada's LAN-adapter
products and lower margins on legacy products.

Selling and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $5.6 million,
or 19.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2000 from $8.3 million, or 28.7% of net sales
for fiscal 1999. During fiscal 2000 Entrada completed a realignment of its sales
organization, which resulted in a reduction in these expenses as well as reduced
advertising and promotional expenses for legacy products.

Engineering, research and development. Engineering, research and development
expenses increased to $6.2 million, or 21.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2000 from
$5.5 million, or 19.0% of net sales, for fiscal 1999. The increase in
engineering, research and development expenses for fiscal 2000 was the result of
a $1.8 million reduction to the net book value of capitalized software
development costs caused by changing market conditions partially offset by cost
savings achieved through the consolidation of Entrada's facilities. Exclusive of
the valuation allowance, engineering research and development expenses for
fiscal 2000 were 15.4% of net sales.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased to
$2.2 million, or 7.6% of net sales, for fiscal 2000 from $2.3 million, or 7.8%
of net sales, for fiscal 1999. This decrease is the result of cost savings
achieved through the consolidation of Entrada's various facilities as well as
eliminating the 35,000 square feet of unused space leased at our Annapolis
Junction, Maryland facility.

Income taxes. There was no provision for income taxes for fiscal years 2000 and
1999. We have carry forwards of domestic federal net operating losses, which may
be available, in part, to reduce future taxable income in the United States.
However, due to potential adjustments to the net operating loss carry forwards
as provided by the Internal Revenue Code with respect to ownership changes,
future availability of the tax benefits is not assured. In addition, we provided
a valuation allowance in full for our deferred tax assets as it is our opinion
that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the assets will not
be realized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The amounts included in our statement of cash flows for fiscal 2001 are not
comparable to our fiscal 2000 amounts due to the inclusion of the former Sync
Research, Inc., for less than a full year. Readers should refer to Sync's annual
report on Form 10-K for information concerning Sync.

We financed our operations before the merger through a combination of debt and
non-interest bearing advances from our former parent, Sorrento Networks
Corporation, a New Jersey corporation. At January 31, 2001, our working capital
was $7.8 million and cash and cash equivalents was $10.0 million.

Cash flow used in operations was $8.8 million during the fiscal year ended
January 31, 2001 compared with cash flow provided by operations of $0.1 million
for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2000. Cash flow used in operations in
fiscal 2001 reflects $3.1 million of net loss from operations after adjustment
for non-cash expenses including depreciation, amortization, and reserves, plus a
$2.7 million decrease in accounts payable, a $1.9 million increase in gross
inventories, and $2.1 million in net cash used in discontinued operations.
During fiscal 2000, our cash flow provided by operations reflected $1.2 million
of net income from operations after adjustment for non-cash expenses including
depreciation, amortization, reserves and valuation allowances, plus a $0.9
million increase in accounts payable, partially offset by a $1.4 million
increase in gross inventories.

To support our anticipated growth, we expect our selling and marketing, research
and development and general and administrative expenses will increase in future
periods. There can be no assurance that our available cash will be sufficient to
fund such additional expenses.

Our investing activities consist primarily of purchases of property, plant and
equipment and software development costs. We purchased $1.6 million and $0.2
million in equipment during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. During fiscal 2001 we also acquired $7.6 million of cash belonging
to Sync Research. During fiscal 2000 the investing activities also included $0.3
million in software development costs. We expect our investments in property and
equipment will increase to support the anticipated growth of our operations and
infrastructure.

Our financing activities during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2001 provided
cash flows of $12.7 million, primarily in connection with the merger. As part of
the Sync and Entrada Networks merger, we received $8.0 million in cash in
exchange for common stock. Additional sources of net cash provided by financing
activities were $1.3 million in net proceeds from short-term borrowings from our
credit facilities and $3.7 million of non-interest bearing advances from our
former parent, net of repayments. During fiscal 2000 financing activities
provided cash flows of $0.3 million which included $2.3 million of net
repayments on short term borrowings, $0.3 million of proceeds net of repayments
on long term debt financing and $2.3 million of non-interest bearing advances
from our former parent, net of repayments.

We had a line of credit with Coast Business Credit totaling a maximum of $7.0
million, subject to limitations based on our receivables and inventories.
Outstanding borrowings against this line of credit were $3.6 million at January
31, 2001. Our credit line was collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory
and equipment, and is guaranteed by Sorrento Networks Corporation. Subsequent to
January 31, 2001, the Coast Business Credit credit arrangement was fully
replaced with a credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank. The Silicon Valley
Bank credit facility has a maximum limit of $5.0 million, subject to a
limitation equal to 75% of our eligible receivables plus the lesser of $1.0
million or 40% of the liquidation value of our eligible inventory. Borrowings
under the credit line bear interest at the bank's prime rate plus 1.75%. In
connection with the line of credit, we issued Silicon Valley Bank five-year
warrants to purchase 75,757 shares of our common stock at $3.30 per share. The
credit arrangement is subject to covenants regarding our tangible net worth, and
is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. The Silicon
Valley Bank credit line features a lower interest rate and simpler
administration.

We anticipate that our available cash resources will be sufficient to meet our
presently anticipated capital requirements through fiscal 2002. We are currently
pursuing external equity financing arrangements that would enhance our liquidity
position in the coming years and enable us to accelerate the development of SAN
products. Nonetheless, our future capital requirements may vary materially from
those now planned including the need for additional working capital to
accommodate planned growth, hiring and infrastructure needs. There can be no
assurances that our working capital requirements will not exceed our ability to
generate sufficient cash internally to support our requirements and that
external financing will be available or that, if available, such financing can
be obtained on terms favorable to us and our shareholders.

Effects of Inflation and Currency Exchange Rates

We believe that the relatively moderate rate of inflation in the United States
over the past few years has not had a significant impact on our sales or
operating results or on the prices of raw materials. There can be no assurance,
however, that inflation will not have a material adverse effect on our operating
results in the future.

All of our sales and expenses are currently denominated in U.S. dollars and to
date our business has not been affected by currency fluctuations. In the future,
however, we could conduct business in several different countries and thus
fluctuations in currency exchange rates could cause our products to become
relatively more expensive in particular countries, leading to a reduction in
sales in that country. In addition, inflation in such countries could increase
our expenses. In the future, we may engage in foreign currency denominated sales
or pay material amounts of expenses in





                                       21







<PAGE>

foreign currencies and, in such event, may experience gains and losses due to
currency fluctuations. Our operating results could be adversely affected by such
fluctuations.

New Accounting Standards

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133 as amended by SFAS
137 and 138, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," is
effective for financial statements with fiscal quarters of all fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The Accounting Standards Executive Committee
issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," and SOP 98-5, "Reporting on
the Costs of Start-up Activities," effective in the current or future periods.
The adoption or future adoption of these standards has had or will have no
material effects on our financial position or results of operations.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation ("FIN") No. 44,
"Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation," an
Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. FIN 44 clarifies the application of
Opinion No. 25 for (a) the definition of an employee for purposes of applying
Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a
non-compensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequences of various modifications
to the terms of a previously fixed stock option award, and (d) the accounting
for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44
is effective July 2, 2000, but certain conclusions cover specific events that
occur after either December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. The adoption of this
standard had no material effect, if any, on our financial position or results of
operations.

In December, 1999 the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition ("SAB 101"), which broadly addresses how
companies report revenues in their financial statements. Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 101B delayed the date of required adoption to October 1, 2000.
Management believes that adoption of this policy had no material effect on our
financial position or results of operations.

Other Matters

From time to time, we are involved in various other legal proceedings and claims
incidental to the conduct of our business. Although it is impossible to predict
the outcome of any outstanding legal proceedings, we believe that such legal
proceedings and claims, individually and in the aggregate, are not likely to
have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations or
cash flows.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates
and foreign currency rates. Our exposure to interest rate risk is the result of
our need for periodic additional financing for our large operating losses and
capital expenditures. The interest rate that we will be able to obtain on debt
financing will depend on market conditions at that time, and may differ from the
rates we have secured on our current debt. Additionally, the interest rates
charged by our present lenders adjust on the basis of the lenders' prime rate.

All of our sales and expenses have been denominated in U.S. dollars and to date
our business has not been affected by currency fluctuations. In the future,
however, we could conduct business in several different countries and thus
fluctuations in currency exchange rates could cause our products to become
relatively more expensive in particular countries, leading to a reduction in
sales in that country. In addition, inflation in such countries could increase
our expenses. In the future, we may engage in foreign currency denominated sales
or pay material amounts of expenses in foreign currencies and, in such event,
may experience gains and losses due to currency fluctuations. Our operating
results could be adversely affected by such fluctuations. We attempt to minimize
our currency exposure risks through working capital management and do not hedge
our exposure to translation gains and losses related to foreign currency
exposures.

We do not hold or issue derivative, derivative commodity instruments or other
financial instruments for trading purposes. Investments held for other than
trading purposes do not impose a material market risk.




                                       22







<PAGE>

We believe that the relatively moderate rate of inflation in the United States
over the past few years and the relatively stable interest rates incurred on
short-term financing have not had a significant impact on our sales, operating
results or prices of raw materials. There can be no assurance, however, that
inflation or an upward trend in short-term interest rates will not have a
material adverse effect on our operating results in the future should we require
debt financing in the future.

     (A)  Options are "in-the-money" if, on January 31, 2001, the market price
          of the Common Stock ($3.75) exceeded the exercise price of such
          options. The value of such options is calculated by determining the
          difference between the aggregate market price of the Common Stock
          covered by such options on January 31, 2001, and the aggregate
          exercise price of such options.


Employment Agreements

         None of our officers is employed for a specified term. Dr. Kanwar J.S.
Chadha, President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, has an agreement dated
December 1, 2000, that provides for the immediate vesting of options, and for
Entrada to loan funds to Dr. Chadha for the purposes of exercising such options,
in the event of a change in control of Entrada.


Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

         The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and
executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered
class of our equity securities to file reports of beneficial ownership and
changes in beneficial ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. To
our knowledge, all filing requirements by our officers and directors were
complied with during the year ended January 31, 2001.

          unexercised options and warrants held, divided by the total of our
          outstanding shares at March 30, 2001 plus the unexercised options and
          warrants detailed above for the referenced holder only. In other
          words, individual percentages of the listed holders will not add to
          the group total because the calculations are made separately for each

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


The Shareholders of
Entrada Networks, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets Entrada Networks,
Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31,
2001 and 2000 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years ended January 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the
Company and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years ended January 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

         Entrada Networks, Inc., (formerly Sync Research, Inc.) the Company,
we, our or us, designs, manufactures and markets products that enable the
transport of data from storage area networks over internet protocol and light to
metro and wide area networks. We also design, manufacture and market fast and
gigabit Ethernet products that are incorporated into the remote access and other
server products of original equipment manufacturers, OEMs. In addition, some of
our products are deployed by telecommunications network operators, applications
service providers, internet service providers, and the operators of corporate
local area and wide area networks for the purpose of providing access to and
transport within their networks. We operate in one business segment, with our
primary facility in San Diego, California and additional facilities in
Annapolis Junction, Maryland and Irvine, California.

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of our management.

A.       THE COMPANY, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

         The Company, incorporated in Delaware as Sync Research, Inc.,
is the product of a reverse merger completed on August 31, 2000 with a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Sorrento Networks Corporation. This subsidiary was
doing business as Entrada Networks. We acquired all the outstanding capital of
Entrada Networks for 4,244,155 of our common shares and issued on additional
2,431,818 shares for cash of $8,025. Entrada Networks' obligation to its
former parent of $25,469 was contributed to our capital as part of the merger.

         As a result of the merger, the former shareholder of Entrada
Networks held a majority interest in the combined entity, which was renamed
Entrada Networks, Inc. from Sync Research, Inc. Generally accepted accounting
principles require in certain circumstances that a company whose shareholders
retain the majority voting interest in the combined business be treated as the
acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the merger has been
accounted for as a "reverse merger," whereby Entrada Networks is deemed to
have purchased Sync Research, Inc. However, Sync remains the legal entity and
the Registrant for Security and Exchange Commission reporting purposes and the
financial statements of the combined entity now reflect the historical
information of Entrada Networks prior to August 31, 2000. The
merger is also accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, which
requires the inclusion of the results of operations of Sync from the date
acquired. The periods presented in the accompanying financial statements
include the results of operations of Sync beginning on September 1, 2000. The
aggregate fair value of assets acquired and the net cash invested in this
business was $7,982. The excess of the aggregate cost over the fair value
of net assets acquired was $4,326, which was recorded as goodwill in the
quarter ended October 31, 2000 and has been written off as a component of loss
on disposal of discontinued business segment. We have also changed our year-end
to that of Entrada Networks.

         Discontinued Operations - On September 29, 2000, after careful
consideration of our plans and business alternatives, our Board of Directors
entered into a plan to discontinue the operations of our frame relay business
segment. The Board concluded that the frame relay business segment would not
contribute to our profitability or toward our goal of entering the storage area
networking market space. The accompanying financial statements reflect the
operations and financial position of the frame relay business segment as a
discontinued business segment for all periods reported in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

B.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         All references to a fiscal year refer to the fiscal year ending on
the January 31 of that year. For example, references to fiscal 2001 refer to
the fiscal year beginning on February 1, 2000 and ending on January 31, 2001.

         Principles of Consolidation - The balance sheets as of the years ended
January 31, 2001 and 2000 and the consolidated statement of operations for
the years ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 reflect our accounts and all
subsidiaries controlled by us after the elimination of significant intercompany
transactions and balances. The consolidated statement of operations for the
year ended January 31, 2001 include the results of operations of Sync from
September 1, 2000.

         Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues
and expenses, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, the values
of purchased assets and assumed liabilities in acquisitions and the loss on
disposal of discontinued operations. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

         Cash and Cash Equivalents - All cash on hand and in banks, certificates
of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less, when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.

         Restricted Cash - Restricted cash represents amounts pledged as
collateral for remaining lease payments on the facility occupied by our
discontinued business segment in Irvine, California.

         Accounts Receivable - In the normal course of business, we extend
unsecured credit to our customers related to the sales of various products.
Typically, credit terms require payment within thirty days from the date of
shipment. We evaluate and monitor the creditworthiness of each customer on a
case-by-case basis.

         Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - We provide an allowance for doubtful
accounts based on our continuing evaluation of our customers' credit risk. We
generally do not require collateral from our customers.

         Inventory - Inventories, comprised of raw materials, work in process,
finished goods and spare parts, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in,
first-out method) or market. Inventories at January 31, 2001 and 2000 consist

         Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The fair value of financial
instruments is determined by reference to various market data and other
valuation techniques as appropriate. We believe that there are no material
differences between the recorded book values of our financial instruments and
their estimated fair value

         Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at
historical cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided over the estimated
useful lives of the individual assets or the terms of the leases, if shorter,
using accelerated and straight-line methods. Useful lives for property and
equipment range from 3 to 7 years.

         Capitalized leases are initially recorded at the present value of the
minimum payments at the inception of the contracts, with an equivalent liability
categorized as appropriate under current or non-current liabilities. Such assets
are depreciated on the same basis as described above. Interest expense, which
represents the difference between the minimum payments and the present value of
the minimum payments at the inception of the lease, is allocated to accounting
periods using a constant rate of interest over the lease.

         Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
circumstances indicate that the asset's undiscounted expected cash flows are not
sufficient to recover its carrying amount. We measure impairment loss by
comparing the fair market value, calculated as the present value of expected
future cash flows, to its net book value. Impairment losses, if any, are
recorded currently.

         Software Development - Software development costs where technological
feasibility has not been established are expensed in the period in which they
occurred. Otherwise, development costs that will become an integral part of our
products are deferred in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards Nos. 2 and 86. The deferred costs are amortized using the
straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product
or the ratio that current revenues for the product bear to the total of current
and anticipated future revenues for that product. Amortization expense for the
years ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $787, $1,043 and $668,
respectively, over 3 to 5 years. Accumulated amortization was $727 and $675
as of January 31, 2000 and January 31, 1999, respectively.

         The recoverability of capitalized software costs are reviewed on an
ongoing basis primarily based upon projections of discounted future operating
cash flows from each software product line. The excess amount, if any, of the

remaining net book value over the calculated amount is fully reserved. We
recorded reductions to the net book value of our capitalized software
development costs of $985 and $1,818 during fiscal years 2001 and 2000,
respectively. These reductions were recorded as engineering expense to reflect
the decline in the net realizable value of these assets as a result of changing
market conditions.

         Research and Development - We expense research and development costs as
incurred in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 2, "Accounting for Research and Development Costs". Research and development
costs are costs associated with products or processes for which technological
feasibility has not been proven and future benefits are uncertain. In-process
research and development purchased by us includes the value of products and
processes in the development stage and have not reached technological
feasibility; this amount is expensed at the date of purchase.

         Revenue Recognition - We generally recognize product revenue when the
products are shipped, all substantial contractual obligations, if any, have been
satisfied, and the collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
Revenue from installation is recognized as the services are performed to the
extent of the direct costs incurred. To date, installation revenue has not been
material. Revenue from service obligations, if any, is deferred and recognized
over the life of the contract. Inventory or demonstration equipment shipped to
potential customers for field trials is not recorded as revenue. We accrue for
warranty costs, sales returns and other allowances at the time of shipment.
Although our products contain a software component, the software is not sold
separately and we are not contractually obligated to provide software upgrades
to our customers.

         The Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 101, Revenue Recognition ("SAB 101") which broadly addresses how companies
report revenues in their financial statements effective the fourth fiscal
quarter of years beginning after December 31, 1999. The adoption of this policy
had no effect on our financial position or results of operations.

         Warranty and Customer Support - We typically warrant our products
against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one to five years
from the date of sale and a provision for estimated future warranty and customer
support costs is recorded when revenue is recognized. To date, warranty and
customer support costs have not been material.

         Income Taxes - Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income
Taxes." The statement employs an asset and liability approach for financial
accounting and reporting of deferred income taxes generally allowing for
recognition of deferred tax assets in the current period for future benefit of
net operating loss and research credit carryforwards as well as items for which
expenses have been recognized for financial statement purposes but will be
deductible in future periods. A valuation allowance is recognized if, on the
weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or
all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. (See Note J).

         Advertising - We expense advertising expenditures as incurred.
Advertising expenses consist of allowances given to customers as well as direct
expenditures. Advertising expenses for fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $30, $11
and $536, respectively.

         Income and Loss Per Common Share - Basic income and loss per common
share is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
each period presented. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding as well as dilutive potential common shares, which in
our case consist of shares issuable under stock option plans. Potential common
shares would not be included in the diluted loss per share computation for
fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 as they would be anti-dilutive. (See Note K).

         Stock-Based Compensation - We account for employee-based stock
compensation utilizing the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."
Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options issued to employees is measured
as the excess, if any, of the fair market price of our common stock at the date
of grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. For
non-employees, we compute the fair value of stock-based compensation in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting
for stock-Based Compensation," and Emerging Issues Tax Force (EITF) 96-18,
"Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for
Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services."

         The FASB issued Interpretation ("FIN") No. 44, "Accounting for Certain
Transactions involving Stock Compensation," an Interpretation of APB Opinion No.
25. FIN 44 clarifies the application of Opinion No. 25 for (a) the definition of
an employee for purposes of applying Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory plan, (c) the
accounting consequences of various modifications to the terms of a previously
fixed stock option award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 was effective July 2,
2000, but certain conclusions cover specific events that occur after either
December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. The adoption of this standard had no
material effect, if any, on our financial position or results of operations.

         Derivative Instruments - SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS 137 and 138 is
effective for financial statements with fiscal quarters of all fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The statement establishes standards for
accounting for derivatives and hedging instruments of which we currently have
none. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 133 to have a material effect,
if any, on our financial position or results of

operations.

         Computer Software for Internal Use - The Accounting Standards Executive
Committee issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs
of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," is effective for
financial statements with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The
SOP provides guidance on accounting for the costs of computer software developed
or obtained for internal use. The SOP requires that we continue to capitalize
certain costs of software developed for internal use once certain criteria are
met. The adoption of SOP 98-1 had no effect on our financial position or results
of operations.

         Start-up Costs - Statement of Opinion 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-up Activities," is effective for financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after December 31, 1998. The SOP provides guidance and examples of the
types of expenses associated with one-time (start-up) activities that under this
SOP must be expensed as incurred. The adoption of SOP 98-5 had no effect on our
financial position or results of operations.

         We had a line of credit of $7,000 from Coast Business Credit which was
collateralized by substantially all our assets and was guaranteed by the former
parent of Entrada. Advances were limited to 75% of eligible receivables and 30%
of eligible inventory. The loan bore interest at 2.5% over the lender's prime
rate but not less than 8%; the interest rate on the line of credit was 12.0% at
January 31, 2001. The highest amount outstanding was $4,011 and $5,283 during
fiscal years 2001 and 2000, respectively. The average amount outstanding was
$2,694 and $4,156 during fiscal years 2000 and 1999, respectively. Subsequent to
January 31, 2001, the Coast Business Credit credit facility was replaced with a
credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank. See Note N.

         We were in compliance with our debt covenants at January 31, 2001.

G.       LITIGATION

         From time to time we are involved in various litigation and proceedings
incidental to the normal conduct of our business. Although it is impossible to
predict the outcome of any outstanding legal proceedings, we believe that such
legal proceedings and claims, individually and in the aggregate, are not likely
to have a material effect on our financial position, the results of operations
or cash flows.

H.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         We are authorized to issue the following shares of stock:
                50,000,000 shares of Common Stock ($.001 par value)
                2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock ($.001 par value)

         None of our preferred stock was outstanding during the years ended
January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.

I.       STOCK OPTION PLANS AND STOCK AWARD PLAN

         We have four stock options plans in effect: The 1991 Stock Option
Plan, the 1996 Stock Option Plan, the 1999 Stock Option Plan and the 2000 Stock
Option Plan. The plans provide for the granting of incentive or non-statutory
stock options to certain key employees, non-employee members of the Board of
Directors, consultants and independent contractors. Options are granted at a
price equal to 100% of the fair market value of our common stock at the date of
grant. Options typically vest at a rate of 25% of the shares on the first
anniversary of the vesting commencement date and 1/36th of the remaining shares
at the end of each month and expire not later than 10 years from the date of
grant at January 31, 2001. The purpose of these plans is to attract, retain,
motivate and reward our officers, directors, employees and consultants to
maximize their contribution toward our success.

         As a result of the accounting for our reverse merger with Entrada
Networks (see Note A), we are considered as having no options to acquire our
common stock outstanding prior to the August 31, 2000 merger date. The
following table summarizes the activity in our plans:

         All stock options issued to employees have an exercise price not less
than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, and in
accordance with the accounting for such options utilizing the intrinsic value
method there is no related compensation expense recorded in our financial
statements. Options which were granted prior to our August 31, 2000 merger were
valued as part of the consideration for the merger. Had compensation cost for
stock-based compensation been determined based on the fair value at the grant
dates in accordance with the method delineated in Statement of Accounting
Standards No. 123, our net loss and loss per share for the years ended
January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, would have been increased to the pro forma

         Our operations generate permanent and temporary differences for
depreciation, amortization, valuation allowances and expense reserves. We have
recorded a 100% valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, including
net operating loss carryforwards, in accordance with the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109. Such allowance is recognized if,
based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

</TABLE>

         At January 31, 2001, we had federal net operating losses which may be
available to reduce future taxable income. Among potential adjustments which may
reduce available loss carryforwards, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, (IRC), reduces the extent to which net operating loss carryforwards may
be utilized in the event there has been an "ownership change" of a company as
defined by applicable IRC provisions. We believe that the issuances of our
equity securities and transfers of ownership of outstanding equity securities
resulted in such an ownership change on August 31, 2001. Further ownership
changes in the future, as defined by the IRC, may reduce the extent to which any
net operating losses may be utilized.

         Our federal NOL carryforwards, after application of the change of
control limitation provided by the IRC, expire as follows:

         The shares issuable upon exercise of options represent the quarterly
average of the shares issuable at exercise net of the shares assumed to have
been purchased, at the average market price for the period, with the assumed
exercise proceeds. Accordingly, options exercise prices in excess of the average
market price for the period are excluded because their effect would be
antidilutive. There were no options to purchase common shares or convertible
preferred stock outstanding during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2000 and
1999. Options to purchase common shares that were outstanding but were not
included in the computation of diluted earnings per shares because the their
exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares
for the period each option was outstanding were 2,214,000 for the fiscal year
ended January 31, 2001.


L.       SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW DISCLOSURES

         Interest expense and taxes paid approximated the related expenses for
the years ended January 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.

         The contribution by our former parent of our obligation to it of
$25,469 neither provided nor used cash. Accordingly, this transaction has been
excluded from the statement of cash flows.

         New capital lease obligations for equipment incurred during the year
ended January 31, 2001 of $296 neither provided nor used cash. Accordingly,
this amount has been excluded from the statement of cash flows.

M.       CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

         Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of
credit risk consist primarily of temporary cash investments and trade
receivables. As regards the former, we place our temporary cash investments with
high credit financial institutions. At times such amounts may exceed F.D.I.C.
limits. One of our short-term investment accounts at a single institution
accounted for approximately 26% of current assets at January 31, 2001.

AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(In Thousands, except share and per share amounts)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are
limited because there is a large number of customers in our customer base spread
across many industries and geographic areas. Two customers each accounted for
40.0%, and 25.2% of net sales for the year ended January 31, 2001. Three
customers each accounted for 19.4%, 18.7%, and 13.7% of net sales for the year
ended January 31, 2000. One customer accounted for 16.3% of fiscal 1999 net
sales. At January 31, 2001 three customers each accounted for 37.0%, 12.6%, and
12.1% of net receivables. At January 31, 2000 one customer accounted for 39.4%
of net receivables.


N.       SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         Subsequent to January 31, 2001, our credit arrangement with Coast
Business Credit was fully replaced with a credit facility with Silicon Valley
Bank. The Silicon Valley Bank credit facility has a maximum limit of $5.0
million, subject to a limitation equal to 75% of our eligible receivables plus
the lesser of $1.0 million or 40% of the liquidation value of our eligible
inventory. Borrowings under the credit line bear interest at the bank's prime
rate plus 1.75%. In connection with the line of credit, we issued Silicon
Valley Bank five-year warrants to purchase 75,757 shares of our common stock
at $3.30 per share. The credit arrangement is subject to covenants regarding
our tangible net worth, and is collateralized by accounts receivable,
inventory and equipment.


O.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         We are subleasing a portion of our San Diego facility on a month-
to-month basis to a subsidiary of our former parent. During the five months
ended January 31, 2001 we received rent payments of $15.
