Jio GigaFiber was initially available at a security deposit charge of Rs. 4,500 but now Reliance Jio is using a new version of its optical network terminal (ONT) device that is available at a security deposit charge of Rs 2,500. The optical network terminal is a device which is designed to enable voice calls, home broadband, and IPTV via a single connection.
For now, the company is planning and testing a triple play plan which features GigaFiber broadband, Jio Home TV, and Jio Apps under a single monthly package.
