Console Port
This port connects a console to the access point using a serial cable. This

chapter 2, "Installing the Access Point 530". The console can be a PC or
workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator, or a VT-100 terminal.
Network Port
The access point includes one 10/100Base-TX port. This port uses the "HP Auto
MDIX" feature, which means that you can use either straight-through or
crossover twisted-pair cables to connect the access point to a switch or
workstation.
Refer to the following section for information on supplying power to the
access point through its RJ-45 port from a network device, such as a switch,
that provides Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Power Connector
The Access Point 530 does not have a power switch; it is powered on when
connected to the AC power adapter, and the power adapter is connected to
an active AC power source. The access point's power adapter automatically
adjusts to any voltage between 100--240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. There are
no voltage range settings required.

adapters, including adapters that came with other ProCurve Networking
products, may result in damage to the equipment.
