US aims to bar new Chinese data-center transceivers, sources say
The Trump administration is drafting a ban on imports of new Chinese data-center components, specifically optical transceivers, to protect U.S. infrastructure. The FCC plans to bar new Chinese transceiver models this year, a move that could affect cloud providers like AWS and Chinese supplier Innolight. The measure could be modified or shelved, with Beijing warning of retaliation and officials not commenting publicly.
