Jio will provide the world’s largest and most technologically advanced 5G network. Through a freestanding network (SA), for which the telco will have a separate infrastructure, the services will be accessible. In contrast to the non-standalone network (NSA), SA cannot use the current 4G network architecture.
This implies that a new SIM card is required to access Jio 5G network benefits. Although the business hasn’t yet disclosed its intentions for introducing Jio 5G SIM in India, it has unveiled Jio Air Fiber ultra 5G hotspot to use wireless high-speed broadband rates comparable to fibre.
