ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

     On October 28, 2004, Terayon Communication Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. A copy of the press release, dated October 28, 2004, is attached and filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS

     The Company is holding its 2004 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on December 16, 2004 (the “2004 Annual Meeting”). In 2003, the annual meeting of stockholders was held on May 28, 2003. As the date of the 2004 Annual Meeting is delayed by more than 30 days from the date of the Company’s previous annual meeting, in accordance with the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company is hereby notifying its stockholders of the new meeting date for the 2004 Annual Meeting. The Company will be mailing the proxy statement and related materials in connection with the 2004 Annual Meeting on or about November 17, 2004. In light of this anticipated mailing schedule and in accordance with the Company’s bylaws, the Company is hereby notifying its stockholders that November 7, 2004 will be the new date for submitting stockholder proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2004 Annual Meeting. The Company believes that such a deadline provides a reasonable time before the Company begins the mailing of its proxy materials for the 2004 Annual Meeting. Stockholder proposals received by the Company after November 7, 2004 will be considered untimely and will not be included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2004 Annual Meeting.
