Need Help Configure Cisco aironet 1040 AP

good day to all, i have problem regarding this one, this is my first time configuring Access Point Wireless Wifi of Cisco, unlike other wireless device you can configure easily but this one is giving me headache,

i apply help in the Cisco community and read articles about this one, it is said that in order to access this device you need a DB-9 to RJ-45 serial cable, which is not included in my purchase even the ac/dc power switch for the device, and it is said i can Power it through POE,

i try to connect this one with ordinary rj45 patch cord. and yes it has power,

can i configure this device using ordinary patch cord? please help me any idea and instruction is gladly appreciated

thanks in advance

find from cisco site

It's been a little while since I have worked with the programming of Cisco routers and such, but you need that Serial cable attached from the AP to your computer.
