that Cisco Systems <CSCO.O> has terminated its agreement with

equipment sales in July, but added that the move will have
little impact on its business.

longstanding sales partnership with ZTE after an internal
investigation into allegations that the Chinese
telecommunications equipment maker sold Cisco networking gear to
