That matches my expectations, but somebody might expect their telco gear to 
stay up longer than the few minutes it takes to cleanly shut down a computer.

Is there a branch of UPS gear aimed at telco rather than computers?  That is 
good efficiency at low power and long time rather than high power for short 
time.

Does all telco gear that is expected to run off UPS take 48V?

Is there a market in small 48V supplies with UPS option for the telco market?  
You would have to build a 48V to 24V converter rather than the whole thing.  
You can probably get a brick for that.
