Notes on the user guide
Information on Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
This device meets the limits for protecting the health of the public from the effecs of
exposure to electromagnetic fields when it is operated in connection with the designated antenna(s) like described in the user manual.
Your device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the limits for exposure to emission from electromagnetic fields recommended
by international guidelines from the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radia-
Schablone 2006_02_08
tion Protection (ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines for the protection of the public and establish permitted levels of exposure to electromagnetic radiation for the population. The guidelines were confirmed by independent scientific
organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure limit employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the international guidelines is 2.0 W/kg. Tests for
SAR are conducted in all frequency bands with the device transmitting at its highest
power level with minimum possibledistance to the body. The actual SAR level of the
device during operation with the designated antenna(s) is below the maximum value
and is additonally decreased by a distance to the device. This is because the device is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to
enable seamless network connection.
Notes on the user guide
This user guide describes how to set up and configure the modem Gigaset SE680
WiMAX. Installation of the individual components is dealt with in the assembly instructions, which you received together with the modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX.

The modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX
The modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX
What is WiMAX?
WiMAX stands for "Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access", a modern wire-
less network technology that enables fast Internet connection even in remote areas.
With WiMAX technology you are no longer dependent on a DSL infrastructure in your
Schablone 2006_02_08
home or place of work. Instead, you connect your PC or network wirelessly to radio
stations operated in your region by your provider. As a result, WiMAX gives you fast,
economical broadband Internet access, even in places that are not connected to the DSL
cable network.
The WiMAX standard IEEE 802.16 generally defines WiMAX technology. Your modem
Gigaset SE680 WiMAX already meets the latest IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard, a mobile
WiMAX standard that offers many extra possibilities.
The modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX
With your modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX, you can make use of everything the Internet
has to offer:
u Downloads
– Even large files download quickly to your PC.
– Complex Website designs are no longer characterised by the time they take to
download – you can enjoy flash animation and high-resolution graphics immediately after clicking on a link.
u Audio
– Play back audio files straight from the Internet.
– Listen to the radio via the Internet in superb digital quality.
u Video
– View short or longer films you find on the Internet without tedious waiting times.
– Watch television via the Internet (IPTV).
– Use "Video on Demand" and order films that are transmitted to you via the
Internet.
u Real time
– Take part in video conferences and feel as if you are sitting in the same room as
the people you are talking to.
– Speak to and see your chat partners.
u VoIP
– Benefit from the economical telephone rates for Internet telephony (Voice over
IP, VoIP). Your PC does not even need to be switched on.

This user guide assumes that the work required for outside installation has already been
carried out.
Therefore, installation is described below starting with how to put the indoor house
connection into service.
PC with modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX
The modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX must be assembled and put into service by a qualified electrician.
The information in the enclosed assembly instructions must be noted.
Base station
10
Gigaset SE680 WiMAX / engbt / A31008-N925-R101-2x-7619 / Installation.fm / 3.11.08
Choosing the location
u Choose the location so that you can easily establish the following connections:
– Ethernet cable socket, which, for example, establishes the connection to the out-
door modem through a wall duct.
– Ethernet cable socket for connection with a PC or network.
– Connection of the power lead with a mains socket.
Schablone 2006_02_08
u First choose the location for the indoor house connection:
– Consider the stated temperature range for the indoor house connection when
choosing the location (see "Specifications" on page 47).
u The indoor house connection can be operated either on a horizontal surface or
mounted on a wall. Make sure the connections cannot become loose and that the
LEDs are clearly visible.
u Lay the cables in such a way that nobody can tread on or trip over them.
System requirements
To install and get started with the indoor house connection, the following requirements
must be fulfilled:
u The outdoor modem has been properly installed and is ready for use. The associated
Ethernet cable is fitted with an RJ45 plug and ends close to the indoor house connection.
u PC with a LAN interface 10/100BaseT or an Ethernet network
10/100BaseT. The network adapter must support one of the following modes:
10BaseT Full Duplex, 100BaseT Half Duplex, 100BaseT Full Duplex.
u The TCP/IP protocol has to be set up on the PC, see "Adjusting the network settings
on the PC" on page 38.
System requirements
Wall mounting (optional)
The indoor house connection is fitted with two clips for wall mounting. Wall mounting
is not absolutely necessary, but is recommended to make the cable connections
mechanically secure.
ì Use screws, anchor fittings and cable clamps to mount the indoor house connection
on a wall.
Make sure the LEDs are easily visible.

Only use the modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX with the supplied mains
cable.
100-240 V /
~1.5 A / AC /
50-60 Hz
ì Connect the power lead to the indoor house connection.
ì Connect the power lead of the indoor house connection to the mains power supply.
The outdoor modem is powered via the Ethernet cable and does not require its own
mains connection.
The system starts booting and performs a self-test.
After the self-test, the modem Gigaset SE680 WiMAX continually attempts to register with a base station. Registration with the base station may be successful immediately; otherwise, registration will take place when your modem Gigaset SE680
WiMAX is being configured.
ì Check the LEDs during startup:
LEDs during startup:
–The ON power supply LED lights up green, and the modem Gigaset SE680
WiMAX starts a self-test.
–The FAULT LED (red) and the CONNECT LED (green) light up for approximately 1
second and then go out. If the connection to the outdoor modem is then found
to be free from errors, the CONNECT LED is continuously lit up green. If an error
occurs, the FAULT and CONNECT LEDs start to flash alternately at regular intervals.
