Reliance announces launch of JioAirfiber services

''Using JioAirFiber, customers can do away with all expenses, and opt to use a virtual PC hosted in the cloud.

We have named this concept, Jio Cloud PC. No large upfront investments, no upgrades. You only pay to the extent you use the Cloud PC, resulting in a super-affordable way to bring the power of a PC, even multiple PCs, to every Indian home and business. This will be a game-changer for every student, every gig-worker, every small business in our country,'' he said while addressing the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (AGM).

''Be it a pharmacy or a doctor's clinic, a grocer or a hotel, a consultant or a Chartered Accountant, everyone can get an affordable computer through Jio Cloud PC and JioAirFiber. Even large enterprises can use this solution. Across Reliance, we use a lot of computers. We are now replacing most of these with Jio Cloud PCs. Jio 5G can also be used to create private 5G networks for large enterprises,'' he said.

He said compared to traditional enterprise Wi-Fi networks, 5G networks provide better reliability, better coverage, better data security, higher scalability, and lower cost, especially in demanding situations.

''Through 5G, we will now connect more and more end devices across multiple areas. With 5G being rolled out in India, the current 800 million connected internet devices will double to 1.5 billion connected internet devices in just a year,'' he said.

Earlier, Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh Ambani announced the launch of Jio 5G services in metro cities by Diwali.
