Serial Port on M5830 Series Radios
M5830 Access Points and Subscriber Units feature a
serial port. The serial port is useful in the event that the
radio cannot be accessed via TCP/IP (HTTP or Telnet).
A Terminal Emulation program (such as HyperTerminal
on the Windows operating system) can be used to access
the radio’s CLI using the radio’s serial port, which is
located behind the RJ-11 access cover on the bottom of
the radio. A serial programming cable has been provided
with each AP for this purpose. The same cable may be
used for subscriber units. To terminate a CLI session
(Telnet or Serial) type the command logout. Type help
or ? for a listing of all CLI commands. Type help
[<command>] for the syntax of a particular command.

Note: Serial management (via the RJ-11 port) is
possible on both APs and SUs regardless of Opmode and
switch settings.
