WASHINGTON - China’s Huawei Technologies Co Ltd, the world’s biggest telecoms equipment maker, argued on Wednesday that Washington should scrap plans to prohibit wireless companies from using U.S. government funds to buy Huawei gear for their networks.
The rule has not gone into effect, although Pai reiterated support for it in a congressional hearing last month. A commissioner also asked for comment on whether existing gear from companies of concern should be removed from U.S. telecommunications networks. The Rural Wireless Association has estimated that it would cost $800 million to $1 billion for all members to replace equipment purchased from China’s Huawei and ZTE.
Missouri’s Mark Twain Communications, for example, also noted in a recent filing that it would be difficult for the companies to determine which suppliers it should avoid because they may in the future pose a national security threat.
