Only if the power goes out for an extended time, there is a battery backup. Not that it's a big deal, home phones are dying off rapidly.

Wired home phones, which do survive without the power, are extinct. I think we have 1 in the house and no one is exactly sure where. It'd be less effort to rip the computer out of the UPS and plug the cordless' station in.
