Datang Telecom (SSE: 600198) is a Chinese telecommunication equipment vendor best known for its leading role in developing the Chinese TD-SCDMA 3G mobile telecommunications standard through subsidiary Datang Mobile. Datang was founded in September 1998 by the China Academy of Telecommunication Technology, and is now listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

Datang's other areas of business include high-capacity digital switching, optical networking, data communication and digital microwave communication equipment and software and system integration services. However, revenue from these sectors is far outweighed by the company's spending on TD-SCDMA research and product development, and in recent years the company has taken out a series of heavy loans from state-owned Chinese banks to fund this development.[1]

In April 2007, Datang managed to secure a 36.6% share of China Mobile's first large-scale TD-SCDMA network construction contracts.[2]
