Introduction
The TG1682G Telephony Gateway supports a Lithium-Ion backup battery to provide continued
telephone service during power outages. The battery backup is not intended to take the place
of AC power.

to provide emergency telephone service in the case of a
power outage. Wireless data and wired data service will

battery power.

Gateway and must be installed.
