Airtel Xstream Fiber launched in Ladakh, Andaman and Nicobar Islands

Airtel FTTH Xtsream Broadband service is now live in Leh & Port Blair.

Highlights

  • Airtel has launched broadband services in Leh & Port Blair
  • Airtel FTTH Xstream Broadband service starts at Rs 499
  • Airtel is the first telco to offer FTTH services in these regions

Airtel Xtsream Fiber is one of the most popular services used across India. However, some of the domestic regions such as Ladakh, Andaman & Nicobar Islands weren’t able to take advantage of the Airtel Xstream broadband service until now, as Airtel has launched its Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) broadband service in these regions.

FTTH services are those where fiber lines are directly connected to individual homes or multitenant buildings, enabling them to access internet from the comfort of their homes. Back in March, Ladakh Lieutenant Governor R K Mathur stressed on connectivity based on optical fibre cables (OFC) for all hamlets in the Union Territory. He assured the providers of necessary support for providing mobile towers and digital connectivity across Ladakh.

Airtel, while taking the advantage, became the first private ISP to roll-out FTTH broadband in these remote geographies and bring digital access to customer by “connecting them to the data superhighway”. The Airtel Xstream Fiber broadband is currently available to customers in Leh in Ladakh, and Port Blair in Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Airtel further confirmed that it plans to scale the service to other key locations in the regions in the coming months.
