Used this cable to wipe and upgrade Aruba os and change my boxes from RW to US, very easy and reliable connection. Review: If you're consoling into an Aruba Wireless access point this is absolutely necessary. - First and foremost, keep in mind that even with this you need something to power up the Aruba AP. This only provides the connection. So don't complain if it doesn't power up when you connect this. You need a power adapter or something to provide POE to the Aruba AP for it to turn on. Okay now to the review of the actual cable. This LOOKS like a normal Micro USB to USB cable. It's not. Those WILL NOT WORK to console the Aruba APs. There's a specific pin out being used in this proprietary cable to allow connectivity. I went thru a lot of cussing and aggravation before learning this fact. So, I hope this helps someone else down the line. Once connected and the AP is powered up you can use this like any other console cable. It shows up as a Serial port and you can use a terminal program (I used PuTTy) to connect in and view or make changes as needed. ## Features - Sold as 1 Each. - Adapter cord for faster connectivity - Compatible with 203R Series AP-203H, AP-303H remote access point - Connectors: TTL serial female connector on first end and USB male connector on second end ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B071YNFZBG | | Best Sellers Rank | #17,111 in USB Cables | | Brand | HP | | Brand Name | HP | | Cable Type | USB | | Color | Assorted Colors | | Compatible Devices | Aruba AP-203H, AP-303H | | Compatible Phone Models | Samsung Galaxy S6, iPhone 6S | | Connectivity Technology | Ethernet, HDMI, USB | | Connector Gender | Female-to-Female, Female-to-Male, Male-to-Male | | Connector Type | Micro USB, USB 2.0 | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 182 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 480 Megabits Per Second | | Ethernet Cable Category | Cat 5e | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00190017107844 | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor, Outdoor | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Weight | 0.02 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Hewlett-Packard | | Model | JY728A | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 5 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Lightweight | | Part Number | 2M20XS7 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Device configuration and management | | Special Feature | Lightweight | | Specification Met | Fda | | UPC | 190017107844 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** HP - **Cable Type:** USB - **Compatible Devices:** Aruba AP-203H, AP-303H - **Connector Type:** Micro USB, USB 2.0 - **Special Feature:** Lightweight ## Images ![HP JY728A Aruba Micro-USB 2.0 Console Adapter Cable - USB/Serial Cable - TTL Serial (F) to USB (M) - for Aruba AP-203H, AP-303H - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61d84TojrEL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What do you load on the pc to access the console for this cable? does the sw come with it?** A: It was plug and play.

So the cable is great, I’m MacGyver-ed one out of other parts to set things up for a client but this particular cable is the better way to go long term. ## Frequently Bought Together - HP JY728A Aruba Micro-USB 2.0 Console Adapter Cable - USB / serial cable - TTL serial (F) to USB (M) - for Aruba AP-203H, AP-303H - Assorted Colors - USB to RJ45 Console Cable 2pack, Essential Tool for Cisco, NETGEAR, Ubiquiti, LINKSYS, TP-Link Routers/Switches Connection, Compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux Laptops - Aexus Cisco Console Cable | USB Type A to USB Micro-B 6 ft (1.8 Meters) | CAB-USB-UB= | USB 2.0 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/52936504-hp-jy728a-aruba-micro-usb-2-0-console-adapter-cable](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/52936504-hp-jy728a-aruba-micro-usb-2-0-console-adapter-cable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
