I have a Vodafone fibre connection: the optical network terminal and the router are connected to the mains power: in the event of a power outage, is there any point in connecting them to a UPS, or is the fibre network going to be without power so nothing will work anyway? - I recall with copper lines, all you needed was for the exchange to have power, not the lines in the street, but is this the case for fiber as well?

If the Chorus Exchange / Cabinet (and it's backhaul) your home's fibre connection is connected back to; is UP (either on Mains or batteries) the fibre connection would still work if you have your gear running on UPS.

Anyone know how long a ONT and router would run on a low end UPS?

No idea you would have to work out what the load drawn by ONT + Router is, and then calculate by dividing UPS Battery Capacity with load drawn.

Do Vodafone Supply a UPS at the time of a fibre install if the customer requests it?
