AB300A Console User Guide

Connecting the Console to the Server

The RS-232 port on the thin client is connected to the serial console port on the server. The

connection is made with the DB9 Serial Cable (5184-1894) included

in the server console

solution bundle.

NOTE: The HP Compaq Thin Client t5500 in the console bundle is a fully functional thin client and
supports the full range of thin client connections. However, the AB300A console solution bundle is
intended to provide RS-232 direct connect terminal emulation connection support only.
