De-stress your cellular RF infrastructure with ‘IO’

In today’s hyper-connected world, the lag of even a few seconds in Internet connectivity feels like an eternity. The biggest reason for this slowdown is a congested network, which occurs when hundreds or more users attempt to use the same network simultaneously.

Network providers rely on Data Offloading, to ease congestion, where traffic from a cellular network is shifted to a Wi-Fi communication network.

‘IO’ by HFCL not only de-stresses the overloaded cellular network but also offers a cost-effective solution. Power your telecom business with HFCL’s deep expertise in developing cutting-edge, carrier-grade network solutions.

India's leading telecom players have collaborated with us to mitigate cellular network congestion issues and reduce network deployment while reducing operational cost.
