What about battery back up and a generator? Verizon's FIOS is PON and needs no power except from the CO. I LOVE THIS MORE THEN WORDS CAN CONVEY.
Not sure what you are talking about here. On the iProvo network the units in the home and the entire network, including 911 will work. In UTOPIA some customers use boxes for phone that are not part of the FTTH portal which is not backed up.
As most home have only cordless phone which do not work during a power outage the network is not the main issue.
My iProvo 911 works with or without power to my home.
That actually is false too! Where did that quote come from? When Utopia customers use an internal or an external telephone adapter both have backup. Which is not the current case on iProvo with the external TA. Also the voice mail indicator does not work on the internal TA because Mstar will not upgrade the customer premise software to support it. Hence anyone who wants to get anything other than a forwarded call to their cell or an email to know when a voice mail arrives is forced to go to an external TA which is not backed up on UPS. Plus you have to remember phone will only work with the old school wired phones not the wireless/mobile phones most people have these days that plug into the wall for power.
