Yes. It should for a couple of hours. This is a 360 watt UPS and the spec sheet for your modem states it draws 15 watts nominally.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, I have the 900VA version and have kept my Hitron, my Tenda mesh box, and OOMA (VoIP) devices running for several hours during power blackouts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Only for a few hours as far as phone goes. Do not know about the rest. I keep cell phone handy.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This UPS will keep your modem running during a power outage. However the battery indicator lights on your modem will not indicate the status of this battery. If like most cable modems, there is a small battery that fits within your modem that you can get from your cable provider.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This device will provide uninterrupted power to your devices for a time proportional to the current draw from the devices it has to power. Low draw longer run time. The Jack's on the UPS are only for surge protection on the telephone and ether net line so not sure why you even mention them. The battery backup provides no current thru those Jacks. The problem with power failure is that the local internet router outside on the pole might lose power as well. If that don't lose power, this device should work fine for you. Install it, Turn off the power to your house and see if it works. Return it if it don't meet your needs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello, As long as we're not overloading the unit, the unit will provide backup power to anything plugged into it. If you know the estimated power draw of your modem, you may want to check the run time charts on the CyberPower Systems website for a more precise estimate of run time you'd expect in an outage. Thank you for submitting your question!
