## Supported Connections

### Network Connection

The Intel® PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN access point supports a 10Mbps or 100Mbps connection to a hub or switch through the RJ-45 connector. The Intel® PRO/Wireless 2011 LAN access point supports a 10Mbps connection. Both access points support IEEE 802.3 specifications. When connecting the access point to a switch, make sure the port parameters on both devices match to avoid severe performance degradation from mis-matched speed or duplex mode.

### Serial Connection

The nine-pin serial port provides a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connection and basic management tools for the access point. The PPP provides a link between access points using a serial connection. The serial link supports direct serial or telephone-line connections. Connecting the access point to a computer requires a null modem cable. Connecting the access point to a modem requires a straight-through cable.

| NOTE: Although it is possible to connect a modem to the serial port, Intel does not provide support for this configuration.

### Power Injector

You can use the optional Intel® PRO/Wireless LAN 2011B Power Injector to supply power to the access point using the standard Ethernet data cable. With the power injector you can consolidate power management and control in the wiring closet without installing AC wiring to the access point. Rather than connecting directly to the access point, the AC power supply connects to the power injector. The power injector sends low-voltage DC power to the access point over the unused wires in a standard four pair Category 5 cable.
