Reliance Jio has reportedly started rolling out landline services to Jio GigaFiber subscribers. The development comes a month after the company was seen testing Triple Play plan for GigaFiber subscribers in which Jio was offering unlimited voice calling support.
The company is yet to officially say anything about the landline rollout or the expanded commercial availability of the GigaFiber service itself. Reliance has been surprisingly quiet about Jio GigaFiber since announcing it with much fanfare at its Annual General Meeting (AGM) last year. The company has sparingly mentioned Jio GigaFiber at its earnings calls but without any specifics.
According to a tweet by Jio GigaFiber user Preshit Deorukhkar, Reliance Jio begun offering its broadband service users with a landline connection that uses the company’s GigaHub Home Gateway. The gateway is already installed in the premises of all existing GigaFiber users to provide the fibre connectivity and it will be also reportedly used to provide the GigaTV aka Jio Home TV services.
He also revealed that the company is asking the subscribers to arrange their own telephone instrument to use the service.
“Jio has started offering and activating landline services through its GigaFiber service, using the JioGigaHub. You get an 8-digit landline number starting with 3xxx, and you have to source your own POTS [Plain Old Telephone Service] instrument,” Preshit wrote in a tweet.
Reliance had revealed its AGM last year that GigaFiber will act as an all-in-one solution by providing broadband, IPTV, landline, video conferencing, VR gaming, and other services. The latest development seems to be a part of the company’s gradual rollout of all these service to the current subscribers.
