I assume this device has never entered the market because no one, apart from the video creator, has shared it on the internet. It appears they only trialled and stopped there.

Could be, but looking at the Fiber OFC level ping made me happy.

Airtel may have tought that for stability an ODU is needed and that too with e-SIM and PoE support.

Another person has unboxed this Airtel AirFiber without ODU device on YouTube. So maybe it's reaching to more people now.

Airtel is now providing this non-ODU Airtel AirFiber unit to dealers and distributors for demo.

Airtel says this device is not meant to be sold to customers.

This is very nice. Can carry this when going for trips or work. Only thing that matters is one has to be in 5G zones.

I think it will not released to Users due to 5G FWA home connections, it is for dealers for acquiring new connections, MNP etc

This should be the default AirFiber thing. Telcos should just move 5G to lower bands and give good experience. Instead of installing chhatri on top of the home and connect it with junk device.
