Baicells Technologies is a US-based manufacturer of 4G and 5G telecommunications equipment. According to the company, more than 100,000 of its base stations have been installed in 64 different nations worldwide.
A serious flaw in wireless communication base stations made by Baicells Technologies can be used to take full control of voice and data traffic or to disrupt telecom networks, the latest report revealed.
