Digicel said it is among operators potentially affected by American-imposed restrictions that ban US firms doing business with China's ZTE Corp, one of the Irish-owned mobile telecoms and communications group's key suppliers. In a statement, Digicel said an audit is under way to ensure that it has no relationship with any products which are affected by the US restrictions. "ZTE is undertaking a complete stock take of all units potentially impacted by the Denial Order," Digicel said. However, the statement from Denis O'Brien-owned Digicel noted that much of its ZTE- related infrastructure roll-out was already complete. Digicel made its announcement yesterday after ZTE Corp said on Wednesday that its main business operations had ceased due to the ban imposed by the US government.
