Reliance Jio is aggressively deploying its 5G services in cities across the country. Apart from this, the company is also preparing to launch a new service called Jio AirFiber. Jio AirFiber was first announced by the company at its Annual General Meeting (AGM) last year and now buzz is that the service could be launched in India in the coming two to three months.
The development was recently shared by Kiran Thomas, who is the director of Jio Platforms. “You can really offer that service in a matter of hours. We want to launch that as soon as we hit critical mass with our 5G rollout,” Thomas said informed of by Livemint. He also said that the company is targeting to reach 100 million homes through its Jio Fiber and Jio AirFiber services in the coming two to three years.

Jio says that all users need to do is plug in the portable Jio AirFiber device and turn it on. Once operational, the Jio AirFiber device will provide a personal Wi-Fi hotspot in users’ homes that is connected to ultra-high-speed internet using true 5G. The service is capable of offering reasonable indoor coverage differentiated spectrum holding and is capable of covering up to 1000 square feet through its home gateway.
“With JioAirFiber, it will be really easy to quickly connect your home or office to gigabit-speed internet,” says Jio.
What we know so far about Jio’s AirFiber service
Jio AirFiber when launched will provide broadband speeds using a wireless connection that is at par with Jio Fiber. However, unlike Jio Fiber, Jio Air Fiber can be used anywhere by plug and play mechanism. Jio AirFiber service and expansion will provide Jio AirFiber device users with 5G speeds and low latency, making it possible to play games in multi-player mode and watch videos smoothly.
As far as the availability is concerned, Reliance Industries is likely to launch Jio AirFiber at the company’s AGM which is expected to take place in July this year.
