Introduction
The ProCurve Radio Port 230 and ProCurve Radio Port 210, components of the ProCurve Wireless LAN System, link
wireless 802.11a/b/g devices to the Ethernet network through a wireless services-enabled switch. These devices are
to be used with the HP ProCurve Switch 5300xl with a ProCurve Wireless EDGE Services xl Module or other
compatible wireless services-enabled switch products. These Radio Ports are designed to be simple plug-and-play
devices that require no individual device configuration before being installed into a network. All Radio port
configurations, including country-specific settings, radio channels, radio power, SSID settings, security settings,
management information, and Radio Port firmware is provided through the wireless services-enabled switch.
NOTE: Before installing Radio Ports, a ProCurve wireless services-enabled switch (such as the ProCurve Switch
5300xl with Wireless EDGE Services xl Module installed) should be deployed, configured and operating in a Normal
mode. See the “ProCurve Wireless EDGE Services xl Module Getting Started Guide” for details.

Description
The ProCurve Radio Port 230 is a dual-radio IEEE 802.11-compliant device supporting simultaneous 802.11a and b/g
wireless Ethernet connections. It contains two embedded 802.11 b/g (2.4 GHz) omni directional diversity antennas,
and two embedded 802.11a (5.4 GHz) omni directional diversity antennas.
The ProCurve Radio Port 210 is a single radio IEEE 802.11-compliant device supporting 802.11 b/g wireless Ethernet
connections. It contains two embedded 802.11 b/g (2.4 GHz) omni directional diversity antennas.
Both Radio Ports are designed for installation in office environments, either using the wall mount or suspended-
ceiling T-Bar mountings built into the underside of the plastic case. Each Radio Port has one RJ-45 connector
supporting 10/100 Ethernet and requires power from any UL-listed, 802.3af-compatible Power over Ethernet (PoE)
switch or power injector.
