The Chinese equipment might be locked out from the US market, but not from the world market. Unless the US could leverage the trust the world has on them to keep China from gaining market share. Remember they asked candidly the British to not buy China's 5G.
Also, not so long ago there were "reports" claiming Huawei devices were compromised and no evidence was provided. The negative marketing against China has been candid and in the open. The US is just trying to win in the court of public opinion on several fronts.
So yeah, "The military is scrambling to understand the aviation crash risk from a new 5G sale" and don't provide a technical basis for the concern: it reads propaganda all over.
- sjg007 6y agoI think China is effectively locked out of Western countries or at least US allies. The UK has banned Huawei and any purchased 5G equipment has to be decommissioned by 2027. Australia and NZ have also banned Huawei.
- snark42 6y agoIn this case the concern is with interference in the 4.0-4.2Ghz spectrum, nothing specific to 5G technology. Is this frequency congested anywhere in the world with or without 5G technology to test?
- JamisonM 6y agoBut again, this doesn't really explain why US military hardware makers are concerned about this, unless the theory is that the US 5G equipment makers are pressuring the private industry groups that make military aviation equipment to pressure the US military and the FCC.. pretty far down a rabbit hole at this point with zero evidence. And around the world 5G is not being deployed at the same frequencies! They are concerned about a particular spectrum. Lots of the purchased spectrum as I understand it is 30Gz+, they are raising zero concerns about that.
