According to Reliance Jio, its 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) service, named Jio AirFiber, will have pan-India coverage within the first half of 2024. Currently, the service is already available in over 4,000 cities and towns.
The telco noted that early signs of demand and customer engagement have been encouraging, and content bundling is driving a 30 per cent higher per capita usage on Jio AirFiber compared to wireline broadband service JioFiber.
It further added that about 90 million of its subscribers have migrated to the 5G network, which has been rolled out across India ahead of schedule. Jio True 5G network now carries almost one-fourth of Jio’s mobility data traffic, and the entire 5G data is now carried on Jio’s own 5G+4G combo core.
Furthermore, Jio is in discussions with multiple original equipment makers (OEMs) to expand the JioBharat platform further and accelerate the transition towards 2G Mukt Bharat.
