What is JioFiber?
JioFiber connectivity comes directly to your home unlike in cases where the fiber reaches only till the building. The last mile connectivity then is done via traditional cable, which reduces internet speed and user experience due to patches. But JioFiber will bring the broadband connectivity right till your house. The current offer as listed on the Jio website is the JioFiber preview offer which gives you ultra high-speed internet up to 100Mbps for 90 days along with a monthly data quota of 100 GB along with complimentary access to a host of Jio's premium apps.
