Stop Your Battery Backup Unit from Beeping in FiOS and U-Verse Systems

You can stop the beeping coming from your Verizon FiOS or AT&T U-Verse fiber to the home system’s battery backup unit (BBU) by purchasing a replacement battery from GS Battery (USA) Inc. (GSB), the only manufacturer-approved battery supplier for fiber to the home battery back-up units.

The system’s BBU provides back-up power in case of a power failure and allows standard voice service for up to eight hours.

GSB is the only battery manufacturer approved for the Verizon FiOS and AT&T U-Verse systems and both came from the phone companies with the Portalac PX12072 battery installed. Recently, this model has been upgraded to a new and improved model, the Goldtop GT12080-HG. The GSB Goldtop replacement battery offers a 3-year replacement guarantee and is designed for long life. This compares to traditional “universal” replacement batteries that offer a 1-year or less warranty and have a useful life of less than 2 years.

“GSB offers a product that customers can rely on to work when it is needed most,” said Vince Pusateri, Senior Director, New Business Development, at GS Battery. “Battery backup unit beeping coming from a fiber to the home system usually indicates the back-up battery has surpassed its useful life and needs replacing. To stop the beeping consumers can purchase the only manufacturer-approved battery for fiber to the home systems -- the Goldtop Battery. GS Battery worked closely with Verizon and AT&T to ensure our battery maximizes the performance of your BBU and fiber to the home system,” Pusateri concluded.

GSB is a member of Call2Recycle, the only no-cost rechargeable battery collection program in North America allowing customers to dispose of old batteries responsibly.
