ALAMEDA, California - January 29, 1997 - TCSI Corporation (Nasdaq: TCSI), a 
global provider of software to the telecom industry, announced today that 
it has been awarded a contract by Anritsu Corporation, one of Japan's 
largest telecom measuring equipment manufacturers.  Under the terms of the 
contract, TCSI will develop the software for a test and measurement system 
that will enable Anritsu to monitor telecom equipment used in large 
networks from a range of suppliers.  The system will be integrated in a 
TMN-based network management system based on SolutionCore, TCSI's primary 
software product.  Anritsu will deploy this network management system for 
one of the largest telecom carriers in Japan, complementing their entire 
range of installed measurement equipment.  This contract, the third new 
agreement TCSI has signed with a Pacific Rim company in the past twelve 
months, calls for development to begin immediately.

Anritsu measurement systems have been used in the research, development, 
manufacturing, and maintenance operations of worldwide telecom operators.  
Anritsu's product range is wide, providing support technologies for today's 
networks including measuring instruments for digital communications, 
optical communications, wireless communications, and microwave measuring 
instruments.  TCSI's software is designed to enable Anritsu to manage, 
monitor, and automate their measurement instruments more easily.

"Our new measurement products, based on TCSI's object-oriented technology, 
will enable Anritsu to develop new management systems quickly and deliver 
to market faster than before, a packaged solution for multi-vendor telecom 
systems," said Koji Shoji, general manager, measuring instruments division 
of Anritsu Corporation.

"As a leader in a highly competitive and dynamic marketplace, Anritsu has 
demonstrated a high degree of confidence in TCSI's software solutions,"
