Good News Jio AirFiber launched

[kanagadeepan]

They better implement Jio AirFiber using mmWave for at least "JioFiber Max" plans, since mmWave 5G is hardly usable in mobile, imho.

aha, thanks. even with the outdoor device, it isn't mmwave, right?

In all likelihood the outdoor unit should connect to mmWave spectrum since Gigabit speeds won't be possible without it as Mobile devices will eat away at the bandwidth of n78 band which penetrates indoors.

And can we compare normal airfiber to a 5g hotspot ? (albeit a larger, more capable modem device which needs to be plugged in )

Yes

Installation mmWave Antennas in all areas are not financially viable, they need to install on demand basis/requirement.

How jio able to provide promised speeds on jio fiber. I get only 2 bars of n78 5g from a tower 800m away. Speed hover between 200-300 mbps.

what does demand signify
if 1-2 customer are ready in month can they install mmwave, because its egg and chickens game, untill someone who received service do mouth publicity that he/she getting fiber like speed in areas where Physical fiber is unavailable , company wont able to grab that customer, otherwise thin demand may gets served by competitor like airtel and bsnl in 6months

Fiber needed for 300 mbps to 1Gbps speed connections even in mmWave, otherwise some other back end spectrum needed for high speed connections.
