Huawei is also vying for additional revenue in the US, where it traditionally has had difficulty striking deals with large enterprise customers due to security concerns about it being based in China, by signing a distribution agreement with Synnex.

Synnex's ConvergeSolv Secure Networking division will work with resellers to deliver Huawei's portfolio of IP network infrastructure, unified communications and data centre products across the US.

Synnex customers will be able to test Huawei's products in its proof-of-concept demo labs in its US distribution headquarters located in Greenville and Fremont.
