Introduction
The ProCurve Radio Port 220, a component of the ProCurve Wireless LAN System, links wireless 802.11a/b/g devices
to the Ethernet network through a wireless services-enabled switch. This device is to be used with the HP ProCurve
Switch 5300 xl, with a ProCurve Wireless EDGE Services xl Module, or other compatible wireless services-enabled
switch product. 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 configuration, including country-specific settings,
radio channel, radio power, SSID settings, security settings, management information, and Radio Port firmware is
provided through the wireless services-enabled switch.
NOTE: Before installing this Radio Port, a 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.
