Indian operator Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited demonstrated what it claims to be India’s first satellite-based giga fiber service dubbed JioSpaceFiber at India Mobile Congress 2023.
The telco said the new offering aims to provide high-speed broadband services to hard-to-reach geographies across the country.
Jio has partnered with satellite provider SES to access its medium earth orbit (MEO) satellite technology. Jio also said it has so far connected four remote locations — Gir (Gujarat), Korba (Chattisgarh), Nabrangpur (Odissa) and ONGC in Jorhat (Assam) to demonstrate the new satellite-based service.
