Counterfeit Cisco Networking Equipment Imported from China
Authorities find more than $78 million worth of counterfeit Cisco Systems networking equipment in an ongoing investigation into imports from China
The coordinated operation, begun in 2005, has resulted in more than 400 seizures of Cisco hardware and labels, the DOJ said in a news release. The operation targets the illegal importation and sale of counterfeit network hardware such as routers, switches and network cards. One of the operation's goals is to protect the public from network infrastructure failures associated with the counterfeits, the DOJ said.
