LONDON, Jan 30 (Reuters) - BT said it will have to
switch some of its existing mobile network equipment from Huawei
to other providers to meet the government's 35% cap on
the Chinese company's involvement in Britain's next generation
networks.
"Inevitably, because of the way that the network works on 4G
and 5G there will be some 4G boxes that are Huawei that will
have to be eradicated," Chief Executive Philip Jansen told
reporters.
"And then there's also an assumption around what the pricing
scenarios might be with alternative providers," he said.
