Last week, BT announced it was stripping Huawei equipment from its existing 3G and 4G mobile network, according to reports on Wednesday, with the company saying it was not going to use equipment from the Chinese manufacturer in its next-generation 5G network.
The British telecoms operator said Huawei gear was not a part of its fixed-line and fibre networks, according to the Reuters report, with the removal being from the mobile networks it acquired through EE.
BT reportedly said the removal would bring the EE network infrastructure in line with policies across the rest of the group.
As of 1520 GMT, BT shares had picked up 2.09% to 253.80p.
