Jio AirFiber launch in India today: What is Jio AirFiber and Jio Fiber

Delhi : Today, September 19, Reliance Jio will introduce Jio AirFiber, a wireless internet service. This service provides amazing speeds of up to 1.5 Gbps and is designed for both households and workplaces, making it perfect for tasks like high-definition video streaming, online gaming, and lag-free video conferencing.

Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries, made the announcement about the launch of Jio AirFiber on August 28 during the 2023 Annual General Meeting in honor of Ganesh Chaturthi. Jio AirFiber has Wi-Fi 6 compatibility, parental controls, and a built-in security firewall.

Over 200 million Indian households represent a significant untapped market that Jio AirFiber plans to exploit. Jio AirFiber is anticipated to be reasonably priced, with an estimated price of approximately 6,000; the introduction of a portable device unit may cause this price to be somewhat higher. Jio AirFiber differentiates itself from Jio Fiber by offering high-speed internet connectivity using 5G technology

Jio AirFiber is a Fixed Wireless Access service that offers homes and businesses high-speed access of up to 1 Gbps. While retaining top-notch internet speed, it supports a variety of devices, including smartphones, PCs, tablets, smart TVs, and set-top boxes.

Jio AirFiber uses wireless signals to create direct connections between households and offices, as opposed to Jio Fiber's reliance on conventional fiber optic lines. This does away with the need for fiber connections and relies on direct line-of-sight to Jio towers. Jio AirFiber delivers speeds up to 1.5 Gbps, which is faster than Jio Fiber's 1 Gbps speed. Jio AirFiber's real speed, however, might change depending on how far away from the nearest tower you are.

Jio AirFiber has a significant coverage advantage over Jio Fiber since it is not constrained by physical infrastructure, like Jio Fiber is. It is designed to be an easy-to-use plug-and-play solution.
