3.2.5
Console Port
This port can be used to connect a console device to the access point through a serial cable. The
console device can be a PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator, or a VT-100 terminal.
3.2.6
Ethernet Port
The sensor has one 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 port that can be attached directly to 10BASE-T/
100BASE-TX LAN segments. These segments must conform to the IEEE 802.3 or 802.3u
specifications.
This port uses an 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 devices such as a
switch or router that provide MDI-X ports. However, when connecting the sensor to a workstation or
other device that does not have MDI-X ports, you must use crossover twisted-pair cable.
NOTE
The 510 is designed to receive power only from an 802.3af-compliant source, an 802.3af compliant
switch, or an AirDefense-approved power injector. Connecting a sensor to a PoE-device that is not
approved by AirDefense can damage the equipment.
3.2.7
Power Connector
The sensor does not have a power switch. It is powered on when connected to the AC power adapter,
and the power adapter is connected to a power source. The sensor power adapter automatically
adjusts to any voltage between 100-240 volts at 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.
The sensor may also receive Power over Ethernet (PoE) from a switch or other network device that
supplies power over the network cable based on the IEEE 802.3af standard. Note that if the sensor is
connected to a PoE source device and also connected to a local power source through the AC power
adapter, PoE will be disabled.
The RJ-45 port also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) based on the IEEE
802.3af standard.
