美运营商:若禁华为 每拿掉一条线就有32个美家庭断网

“我们每拿掉一条线，就会有32个家庭断网。 ”在华为面临美国禁令的当下，一家使用华为设备的美国运营商忧心忡忡地告诉新华社记者。
华为近来被一些美国政客贴上了“不安全”的标签。但是，对此最有发言权的美国电信运营商究竟体验如何？
美运营商：华为设备安全、好用、实惠
记者近日采访了使用华为设备的当地运营商——LHTC宽带公司。他们把自己的多年体验总结为：安全没问题、性能挺可靠、价格很实惠、服务有保障。
从首都华盛顿北上，记者驱车4个小时来到宾夕法尼亚州西南部的斯塔尔斯敦镇，镇上一栋面积不大的平房就是LHTC公司总部。
公司为周边的7000余个家庭和小企业提供电话、电视和宽带网络服务，其中1600个服务对象完全依赖华为设备。
美国一些政客近来大肆鼓噪华为的“安全威胁”，让公司总裁詹姆斯⋅凯尔感到很困惑，因为LHTC公司与华为合作5年来，从未发现华为存在安全威胁的证据。

凯尔告诉记者，在与华为合作之前，公司对华为设备进行了认真评估，认为华为设备没有任何安全问题，而且价格上很有优势。
“5年后我们的合作仍在继续，且在当前这种情况下我们还继续合作，这足以证明我们有良好的合作关系。”凯尔说。
凯尔建议记者到公司的一家地方营业部听听“基层的声音”，于是记者驱车5个小时赶到了南迦南镇。
当地营业部技术总监博妮⋅邦德女士领着记者进了设备间，指着一排排华为网络设备说，小镇周边约1000个家庭的有线电视和宽带网络服务完全依赖华为设备，使用过程中几乎没有出现过技术故障 。
邦德说，如果华为被禁，LHTC的客户将无法上网或看电视。她忧心忡忡地拿起一根线缆说：“我们每拿掉一条线，就会有32个家庭断网。”

美国大型电信运营商不愿涉足乡村地区
据了解，由于乡村地区地广人稀、乏利可图，美国大型电信运营商不愿涉足。因此，在美国各州的乡村地区散布着一些小型运营商，它们的用户规模少则几千，多则几十万。
乡村用户不仅依赖这些运营商提供的服务来上网、看电视、经营农场，危急时刻还要拨打急救电话。
“大运营商不愿意在乡村地区经营，即便在此经营，也不会提供很好的服务。”凯尔说。
为南达科他州约万名用户服务的JVT电信公司则表示，在与华为合作之前，他们与另一家供应商合作，花钱多、效果差。使用华为设备后几乎没有信号中断的情况发生，且华为客服比较及时。

代表美国小型电信运营商利益的乡村无线协会说，其55个会员运营商中有四分之一使用华为等中国公司设备 ，覆盖科罗拉多、犹他、堪萨斯、内布拉斯加、蒙大拿、怀俄明、爱达荷、南达科他等多个州的乡村地区。
乡村无线协会去年曾发表声明，呼吁政府不要禁止华为等中国设备进入美国市场。
华为美国公司首席安全官安迪⋅珀迪日前也表示，华为的技术对位于美国乡村的居民、学校和企业至关重要，公司愿意继续为美国乡村地区提供服务。
华为被禁将迫使一些美国小型电信企业破产
据估算，美国电信运营商完全更换华为等中国公司设备的开销高达8亿至10亿美元，切断华为供应链甚至将迫使一些美国小型电信企业破产。
以LHTC这家小运营商为例，更换华为设备费时费钱，公司不仅需要投入约50万美元，还要全体员工搭上一年时间。
JVT公司则表示，换掉华为设备需耗资1000万美元，且在此期间公司无暇经营其他业务。

美国挑起的中美经贸摩擦已经让一些美国农民感受到寒意，而美国政府的华为禁令可能导致部分乡村地区通信不畅，可谓雪上加霜。
邦德女士对眼下形势非常担心。如果华为被禁，她所在公司将愧对多年来始终信赖他们的客户。
位于美国蒙大拿州的电信运营商尼蒙特公司总裁麦克⋅基尔戈则表示：“我不知道我们还能做什么，我现在夜不能寐。”
US carriers: If you ban Huawei, every time you take off a line, there are 32 beautiful families disconnected.

"Every time we take off a line, there will be 32 families disconnected." At the moment when Huawei faced the US ban, a US operator using Huawei equipment worriedly told Xinhua News Agency.
Huawei has recently been labeled as "unsafe" by some American politicians. But what is the experience of the most vocal US telecom operator?
US carrier: Huawei equipment is safe, easy to use, and affordable
The reporter recently interviewed LHTC Broadband, a local operator using Huawei equipment. They summed up their many years of experience as: no problem with safety, reliable performance, very affordable price, and guaranteed service.
From the capital north of Washington, the reporter drove four hours to the town of Stahlstown in southwestern Pennsylvania. A small bungalow in the town was the headquarters of LHTC.
The company provides telephone, television and broadband network services to more than 7,000 families and small businesses around the world, of which 1,600 are completely dependent on Huawei equipment.
Some US politicians have recently clamored for Huawei's "security threats", which made the company's president, James Kyle, very confused. Because LHTC and Huawei have cooperated for five years, they have never found evidence of Huawei's security threats.

Kyle told reporters that before the cooperation with Huawei, the company made a serious assessment of Huawei equipment, that Huawei equipment has no security problems, and the price is very advantageous.
"After five years, our cooperation is still going on, and in the current situation, we continue to cooperate, which is enough to prove that we have a good cooperative relationship." Kyle said.
Kyle suggested that the reporter go to a local sales department of the company to listen to the "voice of the grassroots", so the reporter drove to Nanjianan Town for 5 hours.
Ms. Bonnie Bund, the technical director of the local sales department, led the reporter into the equipment room and pointed to the row of Huawei network equipment. The cable TV and broadband network services of about 1000 families around the town depended entirely on Huawei equipment. There have been few technical problems in the middle.
Bond said that if Huawei is banned, LHTC customers will not be able to access the Internet or watch TV. She worriedly picked up a cable and said: "Every time we take off a line, 32 families will be disconnected."

Large US telecom operators are reluctant to get involved in rural areas
It is understood that due to the sparsely populated and unprofitable rural areas, large US telecom operators are reluctant to get involved. As a result, small operators are scattered in rural areas of the US states, with thousands of users ranging from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands.
Rural users not only rely on the services provided by these operators to access the Internet, watch TV, operate farms, but also call emergency calls in times of crisis.
“Large operators are not willing to operate in rural areas, and even if they operate here, they will not provide good services,” Kyle said.
JVT Telecom, which serves about 10,000 users in South Dakota, said that before working with Huawei, they worked with another supplier, spending more money and less effective. After using Huawei devices, there is almost no signal interruption, and Huawei customer service is timely.

The Village Wireless Association, which represents the interests of small US telecom operators, says that one-quarter of its 55 member operators use equipment from Chinese companies such as Huawei, covering Colorado, Utah, Kansas, Nebraska, Montana, Wyoming. In the rural areas of several states, such as Idaho and South Dakota.
The Rural Wireless Association issued a statement last year calling on the government not to ban Chinese devices such as Huawei from entering the US market.
Huawei’s chief security officer, Andy Perdido, also said that Huawei’s technology is vital to residents, schools and businesses in rural America, and the company is willing to continue to serve the US rural areas.
Huawei's ban will force some small US telecommunications companies to go bankrupt
It is estimated that the cost of completely replacing US company equipment such as Huawei by US telecom operators is as high as 800 million to 1 billion US dollars. Cutting off Huawei's supply chain will even force some small US telecommunications companies to go bankrupt.
Take LHTC, a small operator, as an example. It takes time and money to replace Huawei equipment. The company not only needs to invest about 500,000 US dollars, but also has to take all employees for one year.
JVT said that it would cost US$10 million to replace Huawei equipment, and the company had no other business during this period.

The US-China economic and trade frictions provoked by the United States have already caused some American farmers to feel the chill, and the US government's ban on Huawei may cause poor communication in some rural areas, which is even worse.
Ms. Bond is very worried about the situation at the moment. If Huawei is banned, her company will continue to trust their customers for years.
Mike M. Kilgore, president of Niemont, a telecom operator based in Montana, said: "I don't know what else we can do. I can't sleep at night."
