The Federal Communications ⁠Commission on Thursday voted unanimously to advance a proposal to bar all Chinese labs from testing electronic devices such as smartphones, cameras and computers for use in the United States.<\/p>\n

The agency says about 75 per cent of ‌all US electronics are tested in China and plans to adopt a streamlined approval process for devices tested in US labs or labs from countries not posing national security risks.<\/p>\n

In a separate 3-0 vote, the commission advanced a proposal to bar China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom from operating data centres in ⁠the US and could ban telecoms carriers from interconnecting with companies on its national security “Covered ‌List”.<\/p>\n

The FCC said it was also considering barring interconnection with companies ‌that own data centres or points of presence at US internet exchange ⁠points, extending restrictions to ⁠some affiliates of listed firms, and prohibiting interconnection with carriers using equipment from suppliers on the national security ‌list including Huawei and ZTE.<\/p>\n
