Detailed Specifications
HPE R6Q99A - Micro-USB TTL 3.3 V → RJ-45 RS-232 AP Console Adapter
Overview
The HPE R6Q99A (also labelled AP-MOD-SERU) is a specialist adapter module designed for network engineers who need to access the console port of Aruba wireless access points via a wired RS-232 console connection. When you're onsite×configuring, troubleshooting or updating an indoor AP and you only have Micro-USB TTL at the device side but the network kit expects RJ-45 RS-232 wiring×this module bridges that gap. It converts the device's Micro-USB TTL 3.3 V interface to a standard RJ-45 console plug, letting you use your standard console cords and terminal environment. It's especially useful in campus or branch wireless deployments where consistency in console access hardware matters.
Key Features
Converts Micro-USB TTL (3.3 V) interface on Aruba access points to standard RJ-45 RS-232 console port - allows use of familiar console cables.
Physically compact, enabling quick swap-in in wiring closets or AP mounting points without bulky adapters or dongles.
Helps standardise console access across models: when your AP install base includes devices with Micro-USB console ports, this adapter ensures you don't need multiple console cable types.
Ideal for field engineers doing AP firmware updates, CLI access, debugging or configuration at branch or campus sites.
