RJio inter-connection: Chink in armour

New Delhi: For Jio which is making a high profile launch, a major chink in its armour is inter-connection. As most of its subscribers will be making calls to older operators network, it will have to ensure that other operators provide it with abundant inter-connection points so that calls from Jio subscribers get seamlessly connected with subscribers of other operators.

In case incumbent operators try to play games, Jio subscribers will face problems in calling subscribers of other operators. Jio has already blamed incumbent operators of not providing it with sufficient interconnection points during test run of its services. Insufficient interconnection points by old operators will impact the quality of calls.
