FCC: 40% of U.S. Telecoms Need More Funds to Replace Huawei, ZTE Equipment, Risk to Rural Service
May 2, 2024, 07:30 PM

The urgency of the funding needs is underscored by warnings that some rural areas might lose cell service if the necessary financial support is not provided. Small carriers, in particular, are struggling with delayed Huawei rip-and-replace funds and the financial burden of replacing the Chinese-made equipment.
