Airtel Xstream AirFiber service is available at an affordable Rs 799 plan, which offers up to 100Mbps speed.
Telecommunications service provider Bharti Airtel today, announced the launch of Airtel Xstream AirFiber, its fixed wireless access (FWA) offering, on 5G for consumers in Delhi and Mumbai.
In accordance with Airtel, 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 claimed to be 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.
Commenting on the initiative, Shashwat Sharma, Director – Consumer Business Bharti Airtel, said, “India has seen the rapid growth of home broadband but there still remain areas with no access to hi-speed internet at home due to the physical challenges of laying fiber in a country the size of India. While fiber to the home will always define the best experience of Wi-Fi at home, AirFiber helps bridge the experience gap for everyone else. Today, we are delighted to launch Xstream AirFiber for consumers in Delhi and Mumbai with a pan-India rollout planned soon.”
Airtel Xstream AirFiber service is available at an affordable Rs 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. To know more about the service, please visit www.airtel.in/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.
