Abstract

Systems and methods can be used to reduce power consumption on a device. In some implementations, power consumption can be reduced by powering down modules. In other implementations, power consumption can be reduced by communicating configuration status messages to the terminating system to reduce communications. Power saving can extend backup battery power duration thereby affording users to access telephone services during a power outage.
