Mini UPS Options for FTTH Kits: A System Integrator Guide

Understanding the Power Continuity Challenge in FTTH Deployments

For system integrators assembling FTTH (Fiber to the Home) installation kits, one recurring technical concern stands out: network equipment such as routers, modems, and ONTs often reboot or lose service during short power outages, voltage drops, or unstable grid conditions. Compounding this issue, improper UPS selection regarding voltage, current, peak load, or connectors can lead to application failure. This makes the choice of a mini UPS component not a minor accessory decision but a core engineering requirement for reliable subscriber-premises installations.

Addressing this challenge requires more than a generic backup battery. It requires evaluation of solutions based on real device voltage, working current, peak/startup behavior, and installation environment, along with technical confirmation and connector/cable matching to reduce selection errors. This is precisely the space where Shanghai Mylion New Energy Co., Ltd., operating under the brand MYLION, positions itself as a global B2B provider of Mini UPS products, DC backup power solutions, and project support for telecom, ISP, broadband, and security applications.

Shanghai Mylion New Energy Co., Ltd.: Company Background and Positioning

Headquartered in Shanghai, China, with business coverage extending globally, Shanghai Mylion New Energy Co., Ltd. functions as a B2B backup power partner and OEM/ODM project partner. The company brings 13+ years of experience in Lithium Battery technology and 10+ years of experience in Mini UPS development, serving telecom operators, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), broadband network companies, fiber network operators, and system integrators globally.

This background is directly relevant to system integrators building FTTH installation kits, since the company’s core value proposition centers on supporting more reliable DC backup deployment and reducing avoidable selection risks for professional project customers—exactly the pain point integrators face when matching backup power to diverse CPE hardware.

Mini UPS Product Portfolio Built for FTTH Installation Kits

MYLION’s product matrix spans ten Mini UPS products organized into distinct series, each addressing a different combination of voltage, current, and runtime needs common in FTTH environments.

12V Standard Series

The 12V Standard Series—including the MU26W, MU48W, and MU68W—is positioned for entry-level to mainstream broadband backup. The MU26W offers a 12V DC output of 2.5A continuous / 3A maximum, a DC5521 input / DC5525 output interface, and 18.72Wh battery capacity, targeting short outages that cause router or ONT reboots. The MU48W steps up to 29.6Wh energy with a center-positive DC5525 output, while the MU68W extends capacity further to 44.4Wh, supporting a maximum power output of 36W (12V/3A) for professional ISP projects.

12V Long-Runtime Series

For installations requiring extended backup duration, the MU635W / MU635L models deliver 75.6Wh of battery energy while maintaining the same 2.5A continuous / 3A maximum 12V DC output, addressing long-duration power outages in residential or remote areas.

12V High-Power Series

Some FTTH kits include high-load CPE or gateways that exceed standard 2.5A thresholds. The MU65W answers this with a 12V DC input supporting up to 6A and a 4A continuous / 5A maximum (60W total) output, backed by 56.16Wh of battery energy—suited to high-performance WiFi equipment and storage-integrated gateways.

12V High-Power Long-Runtime Series

Combining high output current with maximum battery capacity, the MU35W / MU35L models support 60W output with 75.6Wh capacity, positioned for professional gateways requiring high peak current and long backup time.

12V + USB Multi-Output Series

Integrators packaging kits that must power a router alongside USB accessories can consider the MUJ46, which provides 12V DC output (1.5A continuous / 2A maximum) plus dual 5V/3A USB-A and USB-C outputs within an 18W maximum total output limit, supported by 37.44Wh of battery energy. The MUJ435 extends this concept with 50.4Wh energy while keeping the same 18W system limit across 12V DC, 5V USB-A, and 5V USB-C ports.

AC-Input Dual Output Series

The ML1202AC addresses installations where two separate 12V devices—such as an ONT and a router—must be powered from a single AC wall outlet. It uses LiFePO4 battery chemistry, accepts 100–240V AC input, and delivers dual 12V DC output (2A each; 24W total system limit), with 25.6Wh of battery energy, simplifying deployment without an external DC adapter.

Development / Project-Evaluation Directions

Two models remain in project-evaluation status: the MUC85, a USB-C PD Mini UPS built for modern WiFi 6/7 devices requiring USB-C Power Delivery (65W standard / 100W max input, 92.16Wh energy), and the MU248, targeting 24V/48V telecom backup for higher-voltage wireless CPE and radio bridge equipment, with 102.4Wh energy and a 100W total power system limit.

Technical Capabilities and Compliance

MYLION’s proprietary R&D specializes in Mini DC UPS technical content and ISP/broadband backup power applications. The current portfolio covers 12V DC systems up to 60W, LiFePO4 chemistry integration, and emerging USB-C PD 100W input/65W output capabilities. On the compliance side, the company adheres to lithium battery transport documentation and model-specific compliance requirements, holding UN38.3 and MSDS certifications on a model-specific basis—an important consideration for integrators managing cross-border logistics for FTTH kit components.

Platform compatibility extends to routers, ONTs, ONUs, modems, gateways, CPE devices, and security/CCTV equipment, subject to electrical verification—reinforcing the emphasis on matching real device specifications rather than assuming universal compatibility.

Service Model for System Integrators

For system integrators, MYLION’s service scope covers requirement analysis, model matching, sample testing support, connector/cable matching, private labeling, and documentation coordination, delivered through B2B project support, OEM/ODM services, and sample validation. This extends into managed pilot evaluation and mass-production preparation, allowing integrators to move from initial technical confirmation through to scaled deployment. Pricing follows a custom enterprise and project-based quote approach, with after-sales support covering technical evaluation, model matching, and project-specific documentation coordination.

Market Recognition and Business Scope

MYLION is identified as a B2B partner for global ISP and broadband customer-premises deployments, with industry coverage spanning telecom, ISP, broadband, fiber networking, and security. Its customer base includes telecom operators, Internet Service Providers, system integrators, distributors, brand owners, and OEM/ODM customers, while technology partnerships extend to network equipment companies and fiber network operators.

Conclusion

For system integrators tasked with building FTTH installation kits, the practical challenge lies in matching backup power precisely to device voltage, current draw, and installation conditions—while managing connectors, compliance documentation, and project-specific customization. Shanghai Mylion New Energy Co., Ltd., through its MYLION Mini UPS lineup, offers a structured portfolio spanning standard, long-runtime, high-power, multi-output, and AC-input configurations, supported by over a decade of Mini UPS development experience and a B2B service model built around requirement analysis, sample validation, and OEM/ODM project support.
