Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5033162
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The access point 100 includes a network connection section (an RF device 60 and an antenna 70, and Ethernet controller 50, a LAN port 52, or a WAN port 53) for connecting to a network (a wireless LAN, a wired LAN, or a WAN); a USB port 42 for connecting a USB device; and a power supply controller 12 for controlling power supply to the USB device from the USB port 42 based on connection status between the network and the network connection section. The power supply controller 12 distributes power to the USB device on the condition that a communication link was established between the network and the network connection section. If all communication links between the network and the network connection section are disconnected, the power supply controller 12 suspends power supply to the USB device.
