China's Huawei Technologies Co Ltd [HWT.UL], the telecoms equipment company whose products are now integral to various mobile and fixed-line networks, poses no threat to Britain's national security, a board established to monitor the company's operations said.

英国的一个审查委员会称，华为并未对英国国家安全构成威胁。华为产品现已成为英国诸多移动和固话网络的重要组成部分。

The world's second largest telecoms equipment maker set up an independent cyber security evaluation center in Oxford in 2010 in conjunction with the government to check whether its equipment could pose a threat to national security.

2010年，世界第二大电信设备制造商华为与英国政府一道，在牛津设立了一个独立的网络安全评估中心，以评估华为设备是否对英国国家安全构成威胁。

The company has been involved in Britain's telecoms networks for a decade, initially through a multi-billion pound deal to supply BT, the country's largest fixed-line operator, and later mobile service operators O2, EE and Talktalk.

华为进入英国电信网络市场已有十年，最初是与英国电信(BT)达成一笔价值数十亿英镑的交易向后者提供网络设备，之后又成为O2、EE和Talktalk的设备供应商。

But questions have been raised, in Britain and elsewhere, about the potential security implications of allowing the Chinese company access to critical networks.

但英国和其他国家对允许华为接入关键网络带来的潜在安全隐患提出了质疑。

British lawmakers said in 2013 that Huawei, which was founded by Ren Zhengfei, a former People's Liberation Army officer, should have been scrutinized more closely by ministers before it signed its first major deal with BT.

英国议员2013年称，在华为与BT签署第一份重大合同前，英国各部大臣就应对其进行更密切的审查。

The board set up to oversee the work of the center, which includes representatives from government, intelligence agencies, and the company, said it was satisfied with the independence and quality of its tests.

英国政府设立了一个委员会审查华为网络安全评估中心的工作，成员包括英国政府与情报机关以及华为公司的代表。该委员会称对测试的独立性和质量表示满意。

"Any risks to UK national security from Huawei's involvement in the UK's critical networks have been sufficiently mitigated," it said.

“华为产品对英国国家安全有可能造成的任何风险都已充分缓解，”该委员会表示。
