If it is an EPS 12V 8-pin as the other thread mentioned, are the electricians I could commission to make me a cable for it lol. I suppose Facebook marketplace is made for this sort of thing
It appears I’m not the only one with bad luck, appears there already has been a thread on this: https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/connecting-ont-device-to-dc-ups.1119882/
Perhaps I should go the route of getting a UPS and ripping the speaker out to make sure I don’t get the incessant beeping
@Polymathic No PoE on the ONT. Just 4 ethernets, 2 phone lines, and the power. I tried to power it via PoE on the ordinary ethernet but no dice.
@Ferog True, I’ve attached a pic maybe the shapes on the pins are proprietary? I’m struggling to find a brand name on the device.
To help me work during load shedding I got one of these micro-UPS devices which has a split DC connector to power both the router and the ONT (fibre box). Now the ONT at my old place was powered by a @Frogfoot Fibre box that looks as follows and has a compatible DC power connector.
The problem...
