Introducing the HP ProCurve Wireless Access Point 420

Throughout this manual, this access point will be abbreviated as the

Access Point 420.

The Access Point 420 has one 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 port. This port also

supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) based on the IEEE 802.3afstandard. The

access point supports wireless connectivity at speeds up to 54 Mbps based on

the IEEE 802.11g standard.

This access point is designed to be used primarily for connecting wireless

clients to an enterprise network. This access point allows wireless clients to

connect directly to each other, or to connect to other computers or network

resources located on the wired network.
