Jio AirFiber Launching on 19th September

The soon-to-be-launched Jio AirFiber is a portable wireless device that will be able to offer its users Jio’s True 5G services at a speed of 1.5Gbps. Apart from this, the device will also have features like parental controls, Wi-Fi 6 support, and an integrated security firewall.

So what is the difference between Jio AirFiber and JioFiber?

The first thing is that the JioFiber uses fiber optic cables, whereas the upcoming Jio AirFibre is a wireless device. The speed of the internet that will be offered on the Jio AirFibre is 1.5Gbps and is faster than the internet speed offered via the JioFiber(1Gbps).

Jio’s AirFiber can also be installed anywhere without the limitations caused due to any kind of infrastructural issues while drawing fibre optic cables is mandatory to set up JioFiber. As the Jio AirFiber is a plug-and-play device, it can be easily ported and transported and again be set up easily, but this is not the case for the JioFiber. Once it is set up, it is fixed and permanent.

Finally, about the cost, the Jio AirFiber will cost more than what is paid for JioFiber. It is expected to be made available at a total cost of around Rs. 6,000.
