  No need to tap any cables if you're the OEM for the gear at the endpoints.

    This is probably the real reason why Chinese networking equipment was banned in the US and other Five Eyes countries.

      This was the stated reason too, at least here in Europe. National security, which is a polite way of saying the Chinese would tap them. Which they definitely would, since we would too in their position.

        No, I meant that using Chinese networking equipment was banned because it wouldn't have a Five Eyes backdoor.
