The service is initially available in Hyderabad, with plans to expand to other cities by September 2025. The tariff introductory plans are ₹999 and ₹1,499 per month for 100Mbps and 300Mbps speeds, respectively.
State-run telecom service provider Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has made a significant stride in the telecommunication sector with the launch of its Quantum 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) service. This SIM-less, 100% homegrown 5G technology is designed to provide high-speed connectivity to enterprises, businesses, and individual homes, utilizing indigenous technology developed in collaboration with Indian vendors [1].
The Quantum 5G FWA service was officially named through a public suggestion campaign, with the final name being "Quantum 5G" [2]. This service is currently available in Hyderabad, with plans to expand to other cities by September 2025. The introductory tariffs for the service are ₹999 per month for 100Mbps speeds and ₹1,499 per month for 300Mbps speeds [1].
BSNL's Quantum 5G FWA is a revolutionary step in the telecom industry, offering enterprises and businesses high-speed, secure, and reliable internet connectivity without the need for a SIM card. The service is part of BSNL's broader strategy to enhance its 4G network and pave the way for future 5G technologies [1].
In addition to the Quantum 5G FWA launch, BSNL has also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Polycab India Limited to implement the Amended BharatNet Project across Karnataka, Goa, and Puducherry. This initiative aims to deliver high-speed broadband to all inhabited Gram Panchayats (GPs) and villages in the mentioned regions [2].
BSNL's recent advancements in 4G infrastructure also reflect its commitment to expanding its network coverage and improving connectivity. With around 70,000 out of 100,000 4G towers currently active, BSNL is well on its way to achieving its goal of providing high-quality internet services across the country [1].
