In a separate story first reported by Reuters, Cisco cut ties with ZTE following an internal investigation said to have confirmed that ZTE is reselling branded Cisco equipment to Iran-based companies -- a violation of economic sanctions.
According to Reuters, Cisco probed its reseller relationship with ZTE following reports from the news service that ZTE had sold equipment from Cisco and other U.S. companies to Iranian telecom customers.
