NBN Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) Power Supply Unit

When switching your home or business to a NBN Fibre to the Premises connection (FTTP), your NBN power supply unit comes with a battery back-up.

In the case of a power outage, the battery back-up will last for about five hours. If your back-up battery is flat, faulty or missing, your phone and internet services will not work.

You will know when it's time to replace the battery when the "Replace Battery" light appears on the NBN Co box. You will also hear an alarm sound - one beep every 15 minutes indicates the battery needs replacing, and four beeps every minute indicates less than half of the battery charge is remaining.

The NBN Co will not replace the battery. You are responsible for sourcing, removing and installing a new battery.
