What type of phone line? POTS works regardless of subscriber power. It
always a good idea to have a dial up line for such emergencies as
power outages. Some digital lines also supply data regardless of your

OT: FiOS BBU auxiliary power
We lost electrical power for four days in ours due to the recent snow
Using FiOS for phone means that when the Battery Backup Unit (BBU)
battery runs down (7-8 hours) there is no more phone.
We have the CPL28U12 BBU (that is an APC number as well - same unit)
which supposedly can accept an auxiliary power supply, but I am having
difficulty identifying one and the capabilities of same.
So far all Verizon has been able to say is they don't think the aux port
is active?
Anyone?
Thank you for any help you may be able to offer

FiOS (fiber option system offered by Verizon) - user supplies power to
charge a BBU - when house current is absent the unit runs the phone on
battery for 7-8 hours
The unit is supposed to take an auxiliary power input to expend the
operating time, but I haven't been able to get very far on that line of
inquiry so far.
