| FIOS internet /ONT at 220v
Here is the the story I have two VERY large APC UPS that are used to run server at my home. I would like to buy or replace the current ont power/ups with a 220v ups so I can power them off of my two big ups's. I know this is crazy but I really don't want to mess with step down transformers. I know apc had broadband ups/power units on there page but I can't seam to find them any more. I was betting if I could get a European model one I could just replace my current one. Any know where the links for these have gone off of APC web site. |

1 edit | The Verizon-supplied UPS communicates signals to the ONT to indicate if a power failure has occurred, and responds to periodic test commands to determine battery condition. Suggest you keep the originally supplied UPS.
Replace the power supply brick. It has a voltage input 90-135VAC, 50-60 Hz, and an output 48VDC at 38W, according to the ratings label.
Feed the UPS with 48VDC from a different power supply compatible with your 220V UPS system. This unit should work without problems.
EDIT: Changed to a consumer vendor, rather than a wholesale vendor. |

So you want to go through the hassle of finding, as well as buying, a "european model" power supply for your ONT? A very simple travel voltage adapter would be no larger then a typical wall wart transformer, do exactly what you are wanting to do, and likely would be far cheaper. But if you don't want to bother with the transformer, just run the existing power supply off of one leg of the 220 and neutral. |

European is 230V 50HZ and there is NO netural as we have in the US. US is split-phase Hot-Netural-Hot, EU is Hot-Hot |

Be careful there, most of those "travel adapters" are not rated for continuous use, and may run hot, burn out, and even catch fire.
