Mercury batteries use either pure mercury (II) oxide (HgO)—also called mercuric oxide—or a mixture of HgO with manganese dioxide (MnO 2) as the cathode. Mercuric oxide is a non-conductor, so some graphite is mixed with it; the graphite also helps prevent collection of mercury.

Most telecom base stations use 48V battery systems, while some legacy or hybrid sites may have 24V configurations. Lithium systems can be integrated into these architectures with proper BMS and charge control, providing longer life, reduced weight, and lower maintenance.
