BSNL's National Internet Backbone (BSNL-NIB) — the network of Bharat Sanchar

Nigam Limited, India's state-owned telecom operator.

What it's used for

  • Fixed broadband and backbone connectivity across India, including many rural and smaller-town areas where private carriers are thinner.

Notable

  • State-owned "eyeball" network; the "NIB" (National Internet Backbone) is its long-running domestic IP network.

Interesting

  • BSNL has historically carried broadband into parts of India underserved by the private operators, giving it wide but sometimes older-technology coverage.
