Hi All

 

 

 

Can anyone tell me what is the length of the power cable that is used to power the spark/chorus ONT?  I am planning to put it up high on a shelf but the power point is down low....

The newer ONTs come with a wall wart style power supply. Can't help you more than that, as my ONT came with an inline power supply. (looks like a laptop power supply).

Not possible to just use a power board as a short extension cord if needed?

Mine has 2.3 m of mains cable to the power block then about another metre of low voltage cable to the ONT. Nothing to stop adding a short mains extension lead, anyway.

Sorry, can't tell you. Mine with the wall wart mysteriously shrank by a considerable amount all of a sudden.

Our latest, wall wart style, power supply is 2.4m.

 

 

 

mods should rename to topic to Chorus ONT.

Does anyone know where to get the molex to 12v DC cable? I want to plug a 12V DC UPS to the ONT.
