Previously, Mykhailo Fedorov talked about xPON fiber optic technology, which allows you to be online for up to 72 hours without electricity. It has now prepared information with providers about other energy-saving technologies that will help have internet during power outages.

What technologies will help us have internet during outages?

Besides xPON technology, you can also use FTTx, DOCSIS or xDSL technologies.

Average operating time without electricity:

• xPON – up to 72 hours,
• FTTx – 4 to 8 hours,
• DOCSIS – from 4 to 8 hours,
• xDSL – 4 to 8 hours.

To avoid being surprised by power outages, call your provider now and find out which technology is right for you.
– Ministry of Statistics added.

Previously, the State Special Communications Service advised Ukrainians to pay for the services of Internet providers several months in advance so that they have additional funds to strengthen their technology and capabilities in case of temporary power outages.

It is recommended that you do not use mobile internet during outages

• The State Special Communication Service called on people who will use mobile internet during outages not to overuse it. After all, how long they can work independently will depend on the load on the base stations of mobile communications.
• Also the connection may be bad; Last year lucky people were able to catch it here and there. Therefore, Ukrainians were warned not to watch videos or download large files in such cases so that someone could send an important message or call an ambulance.
