Telecom operators, ISPs, tower companies, and broadband service providers needing reliable, remote-monitored backup at cell sites and data centres.
Applications
Cell tower backup
Replaces VRLA banks at macro and small-cell sites with 3× longer life.
ISP / fiber distribution
Backup for OLTs, splitters, and customer-facing distribution points.
Data centre edge
DC backup for edge compute and micro-data-centre racks.
Why lithium over lead-acid?
Telecom VRLA banks fail every 2–3 years and account for the largest single OPEX item at most tower sites. Athena's lithium packs deliver 8–10 year life with remote SNMP telemetry — eliminating most truck-rolls.
Over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, short circuit, thermal runaway prevention.
Cell-Level Balancing
Active balancing keeps every cell uniform — extends real-world pack life.
Thermal Cutoffs
Over-temperature and under-temperature cutoffs to keep cells in their safe operating window.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this fit a standard 19-inch telecom rack?
Yes — 3U 19" rack form factor with front terminals.
Can it be remotely monitored?
Yes — SNMP gateway provides real-time SoC, voltage, temperature, and alarms to your NOC.
