On September 19, 2023, Reliance Jio will introduce Jio AirFiber, a new wireless internet service. The service is a portable wireless internet service built for homes and companies with rates of up to 1.5 Gbps, allowing customers to stream high-definition films, play online games, and hold video conferences without latency. Mukesh Ambani, the chairperson and managing director of Reliance Industries, revealed during the 2023 AGM that Jio AirFiber will be live on Ganesh Chaturthi.

Jio AirFiber also has parental controls, Wi-Fi 6 capability, and an integrated security firewall. It is worth mentioning that the Jio AirFiber service was first launched at the company's 45th annual general meeting last year.

"Let's examine what JioFiber is and how it varies from the JioFiber internet connection that is conventional."

What is Jio AirFiber? 

Jio AirFiber is a new wireless internet service from Jio that provides high-speed internet access through 5G technology. It provides speeds equivalent to those of regular fiber-optic connections and allows customers to access rates of up to 1 Gbps.

JioAirfiber is not just small but also simple to put up, according to Jio. "All you have to do is plug it in and turn it on." Thanks to True 5G, you now have a personal Wi-Fi hotspot connected to blazingly fast internet throughout your home. "With JioAirFiber, it will be extremely simple to connect your home or office to Gigabit-speed Internet," Jio stated.

JioFiber vs Jio AirFiber

  1. Technology: Whereas Jio AirFiber is delivered wirelessly through point-to-point radio connections, Jio Fiber's coverage is supplied by traditional fiber optic cables. This implies that Jio AirFiber links households and workplaces directly to Jio via wireless signals, removing the need for fibre connections. It instead relies on direct contact with Jio towers. 
  2. Speed: Jio AirFiber is said to provide internet speeds of up to 1.5 Gbps, exceeding Jio Fiber's 1 Gbps speed. It is crucial to note, however, that the real speed of Jio AirFiber may vary depending on the distance from the nearest tower.
  3. Coverage: Jio Fiber, while providing more coverage, is not accessible statewide. In contrast, JioAirFiber's wireless technology, according to Jio, will enable it to deliver vast coverage without being constrained by physical infrastructure.
  4. Coverage:Jio AirFiber is plug-and-play, which makes it more user-friendly and accessible to clients. On the other side, a professional typically installs Jio Fiber.
  5. Installation: Jio AirFiber is designed to be plug-and-play, which increases customer accessibility and user-friendliness.  Jio Fibre, on the other hand, usually needs expert installation.
  6. Cost: The Jio AirFiber service is projected to be reasonably priced, maybe about Rs 6,000.JioAirFiber might cost more than a broadband connection because it comes with a portable device.

Jio AirFiber provides more than simply fast internet. It also features parental control tools, Wi-Fi 6 compatibility, interaction with the Jio set-top box, and increased network control.
