Huawei, ZTE May Soon Face US FCC Ban From Approval of New Telecom Equipment

 




Huawei, ZTE and other Chinese companies were deemed to pose national security threats in June 2021, with the FCC's vote to advance approval ban.

According to a document shared by the organisation, the US Federal Communications Commission intends to prohibit permits of new telecom equipment from China's Huawei Technologies and ZTE in the country due to national security concerns.

The proposed restriction was distributed to the other three commissioners last week by FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel for final approval. Without equipment authorizations, the businesses would be unable to sell new equipment in the US.



The FCC decided in June 2021 to pursue the proposal to prohibit permits for technology in the US telecom networks from Chinese firms regarded national security concerns, such as Huawei and ZTE.

That came after a 2019 law aimed at defending the US communications networks designated five Chinese companies on the so-called "covered list" as posing a threat to national security in March 2021: Huawei Technologies, ZTE, Hytera Communications, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology, and Zhejiang Dahua Technology.



In June 2021, the FCC announced that it was thinking of prohibiting all equipment authorizations for all businesses on the covered list.



The FCC expanded the list of companies covered this year to include China Telecom (Americas), China Mobile International USA, Pacific Networks, and China Unicom (Americas).



We have left open chances for (Huawei and other Chinese technology) usage in the United States through the new restrictions, according to Rosenworcel, who stated last year that they would "remove untrustworthy equipment from our communications networks our equipment authorisation process. So here we propose to close that door."

Since 2018, the FCC has granted more than 3,000 applications from Huawei, according to FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr, who stated this in 2021.



All upcoming authorizations for communications equipment that the FCC deems to pose an unacceptable danger to national security would be prohibited.



The US added Huawei, Hikvision, and other companies to its economic sanctions list in 2019.



Also in 2020, the FCC declared ZTE and Huawei to be national security risks to communications networks, prohibiting US businesses from using a $8.3 billion (about Rs. 68,300) government fund to buy equipment from the firms.



the FCC "abused state power and unfairly attacked Chinese telecom providers again without factual foundation," according to a statement made by the Chinese embassy in Washington earlier this year.
