Installation Options 

We offer two installation options to choose from depending on your home's layout.
Both options require the use of a battery backup-up unit which is supplied in the kit. Please refer 
to the battery backup-up information on our website for additional details.

receive your installation due date when you place your order or check your U-verse Voice
