 FPR1207-F/FPR1207-F Technical Manual. 

The FPR1207-F is an optical network terminal (ONT) power 
supply that provides 7W of primary and standby power 
at 12Vdc. The FPR1207-F converts customer supplied 
120Vac/240Vac, 50/60Hz outlet voltage to a 12Vdc output. 
Status reporting is provided locally via audible and visual 
alarms. Standby power is provided by one 7.2Ah battery 
installed in the FPR1207-F. Upon loss of AC power the 
FPR1207-F supports the load until the battery reaches 25% 
remaining usable capacity. At that point, the FPR1207-F 
enters sleep mode preserving capacity for emergency 
calls. Pressing the Emergency Use button accesses the 
remaining capacity.

Area

1.  Unpack and inspect the FPR1207-F. 

2.  The unit is designed for use in a sheltered environment protected from rain and snow. Its operating 

temperature range is 0°C to 40°C / 32°F to 104°F (ambient). Install the unit near an AC outlet.

3.  Remove battery compartment door by pressing tab and opening door. Remove the door and set aside until 

the installation process is complete.

4.  Determine the necessary cable length to provide appropriate service loops between the FPR1207-F, the 

ONT, and the outlet. Plug the line cord into the receptacle on the back of the FPR1207-F. Do not plug the 
FPR1207-F into an AC outlet until the last step of the installation procedure.

5.  Mount the FPR1207-F to the wall with #12 fasteners or equivalent, using the keyholes for easy mounting. 

For applications (with 7.2Ah battery only) with higher seismic requirements, use the round holes in the back 
of the unit for direct fastening to a stud or other structural feature.

6.  Connect Coax cable to F-type connector.
