Bharti Airtel has launched ‘Airtel Xstream AirFiber’, its fixed wireless access (FWA) offering, on 5G for consumers in Delhi and Mumbai. The need for Wi-Fi at home has grown exponentially in the past 3-4 years. With fiber to home connecting only 34 million homes in India, a very large number of customers struggle for fiber access. Airtel Xstream AirFiber is the country’s first 5G wireless Wi-Fi solution that will offer internet to consumers in fiber dark areas. It will address the last mile connectivity issue in both rural and urban India where access to fiber infrastructure is a challenge. Xstream AirFiber is a plug-and-play device with in-built Wi-Fi 6 technology that will offer wide indoor coverage and can simultaneously connect up to 64 devices.
Airtel Xstream AirFiber service is available at an affordable 799 plan, which offers up to 100Mbps speed. The plan can be availed for a duration of six months with a one-time refundable security deposit of Rs 2500. To avail the service, customers can walk into select Airtel stores in Delhi and Mumbai and opt for Xstream AirFiber. Airtel plans to launch the service in multiple cities and scale up nationally in a phased manner. All Xstream AirFiber devices will be manufactured in India under the ‘Make in India’ programme.
Bharti Airtel is a leading integrated telecommunications company with operations across Asia and Africa.
