After 4G mobile services, Reliance Jio on Wednesday started registration for optical fibre based fixed-line broadband service through which it has claimed to offer a download speed of one gigabit per second. “JioGigaFiber. Make your neighbourhood #Gigaready with Gigabit wifi, TV, smart home, free calling and more,” read the registration option in MyJio App. At present, major rivals of Jio offer download speed up to 100 megabit per second for about Rs. 1,000 per month for home users. Jio broaband service will enable smart-home solutions where devices such as security cameras, home appliances even lights and switches can be securely controlled by their owners using a smartphone from inside and outside the home, Mr. Ambani added.
