# Node 5G Q Series Global Modem: power

Data version 6d29e2f86993, built 2026-10-26; facts on this page checked 2026-10-21.

Power of [Node 5G Q Series Global Modem](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/products/prod.node-5g-modem.md), every field with its source and date. A field no source publishes reads "Not collected yet."; that is not a "no". A note is Teradek's remark next to a figure; a figure inside a note is not stored as a spec.
## Power

- <a id="specs-power-input_v_max"></a>Node 5G: highest input voltage 5 V. Source: official page (https://teradek.com/products/node-5g-modem), seen 2026-10-21. Note: 5V DC input.
- <a id="specs-power-consumption_w_typical"></a>Node 5G: typical power draw 3 W. Source: official page (https://teradek.com/products/node-5g-modem), seen 2026-10-21. Source note: "0.04A idle, up to 1.2A active at 5V". Note: Nominal power draw during 5G transmission.
- <a id="specs-power-consumption_w_max"></a>Node 5G: maximum power draw 6 W. Source: official page (https://teradek.com/products/node-5g-modem), seen 2026-10-21. Source note: "1.2A at 5V max". Note: Peak consumption during maximum RF throughput.
- <a id="specs-power-battery_mounts"></a>Node 5G: battery mounts: none. Source: Teradek product data, seen 2026-10-21. Note: Bus powered from host device.
- <a id="specs-power-connector"></a>Node 5G: connector: 5-pin locking connector (5V DC from host). Source: official page (https://teradek.com/products/node-5g-modem), seen 2026-10-21. Note: Locking connector with USB-A/C cable options.

## Battery runtime

- Node 5G on a 50 Wh battery: about 16.7 h at typical draw (3 W), about 8.3 h at maximum draw (6 W). Workings: [/calc/battery-runtime.md?product=prod.node-5g-modem&wh=50](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/calc/battery-runtime.md?product=prod.node-5g-modem&wh=50).
- Node 5G on a 98 Wh battery: about 32.7 h at typical draw (3 W), about 16.3 h at maximum draw (6 W). Workings: [/calc/battery-runtime.md?product=prod.node-5g-modem&wh=98](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/calc/battery-runtime.md?product=prod.node-5g-modem&wh=98).
- Node 5G on a 150 Wh battery: about 50.0 h at typical draw (3 W), about 25.0 h at maximum draw (6 W). Workings: [/calc/battery-runtime.md?product=prod.node-5g-modem&wh=150](https://specs-dev.teradek.com/calc/battery-runtime.md?product=prod.node-5g-modem&wh=150).

Runtime = battery watt-hours ÷ stated draw: an estimate, not a measured runtime. Not included: the monitor, camera and accessories on the same battery, conversion losses, battery ageing and cold.
