The Biden administration has banned approvals of new telecommunications equipment from China's Huawei Technologies and ZTE because they pose ‘an unacceptable risk’ to U.S. national security
The move represents Washington's latest crackdown on the Chinese tech giants amid fears that Beijing could use them to"These new rules are an important part of our ongoing actions to protect the American people from national security threats involving telecommunications," FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said in a statement.
Dahua said in a statement that the order went "far beyond" the FCC's statutory authority and would do "little or nothing" to protect U.S. national security. It also stressed that the FCC move allows the company to sell previously authorized products and obtain new authorizations, as long as they are not marketed for public safety, government facilities, critical infrastructure, or national security.
Rosenworcel circulated the proposed measure to the other three commissioners for final approval last month. That came after a March 2021 designation of five Chinese companies on the so-called "covered list" as posing a threat to national security under a 2019 law aimed at protecting U.S. communications networks: Huawei, ZTE, Hytera Communications Corp Hikvision and Dahua.
