FXA5000
Does the FXA5000 Smart Hub have internal battery backup in case of a power outage?
mrrob77 Does the Telus FXA5000 have any internal battery backup in case of power outage? Do I lose phone and internet service during a power outage?
The long and the short answer is no, the FXA5000 does not contain battery backup of any sort. There are however a couple of solutions. First you could always add a UPS to your system to ensure at least your hardware has power.
The caveat of course is if it is a neighborhood wide power outage the likelihood of any signal getting through would be minimal.
I always keep a cell phone handy just in case. Regardless if you have or don’t have a phone plan, 911 in case of emergencies is always available regardless of the phone status.
Hope this helps, cheers

Thanks Dr! As I suspected. My old Shaw system had a UPS backup powering the modem.
