Console Port
This port is used to connect a console to the access point by using the serial
cable supplied with the access point. This connection is described under
“Connect a Console to the Access Point” in chapter 2, “Installing the
Access Point 420wl”. The console can be a PC or workstation running a VT-100
terminal emulator, or a VT-100 terminal.

Access Point 420wl”. 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 MDI
(i.e., internal straight-through) pin configuration. You can therefore use
straight-through twisted-pair cable to connect this port to most network
interconnection device such as switch or router that provide MDI-X ports.
However, if you need to connect the access point to a workstation or other
device that only has MDI ports, then use crossover twisted-pair cable.

However, if you need to connect the access point to a workstation or other

Ports on most HP switches have 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 these switches.

Power Connector
The AP 420 ww/na 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 automatically adjusts to any
voltage between 100--240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. There are no voltage
range settings required.

Use only the AC power adapter supplied with the access point. Use of other
adapters, including adapters that came with other HP network products, may
result in damage to the equipment.

or other network device that supplies power over the network cable based on
the IEEE 802.3af standard.
