6Information about the optional outdoor antennaGigaset SE681 WiMAX / engbt / A31008-N923-R101-2x-7619 / Safety.fm / 27.3.08Schablone 2007_10_19Information 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 desig-nated 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-tion Protection (ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines for the pro-tection of the public and establish permitted levels of exposure to electromagnetic radi-ation 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, regard-less 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.Information about the optional outdoor antennaWall duct: To connect the Gigaset SE681 WiMAX to the outdoor antenna, the antenna cable must be fed through the wall to the outside of the building. It must be possible to make a suit-able wall or window duct at or near the location of the Gigaset SE681 WiMAX. Setting up the antenna mast: There should not be any obstructions (walls, trees etc.) in front of the antenna. WOnly one of the antennas listed on page 13 must be used. The outdoor antenna must be installed and put into service by a qualified electrician. ìOnly commence the outdoor work once you have taken all the neces-sary steps to make the location safe. Be sure to observe the safety instructions.
7Information about the optional outdoor antennaGigaset SE681 WiMAX / engbt / A31008-N923-R101-2x-7619 / Safety.fm / 27.3.08Schablone 2007_10_19The antenna mast must be structurally secure. Check how secure the various attach-ments are. The antenna mast must be within reach of the cable. Ideally, the antenna cable should be protected outside (from frost, sun, unauthorised and mechanical influences etc.). In particular, make sure the antenna mast has sufficient load capacity. If you are mount-ing the mast on the roof, make sure the roof is fully sealed again afterwards.Lightning protectionThe antenna mast should be positioned near a lightning conductor. A suitable lightning conductor must be installed where necessary. The Siemens outdoor antenna is not designed to be struck directly by lightning and must be protected accordingly. The antenna must therefore be mounted in areas that are protected against lightning (Lightning Protection Zone 0B). The corresponding sep-aration distance (IEC 62305) must be complied with. Earthing and lightning protection work may only be carried out by electricians specifi-cally qualified for such work.The best results will be obtained if the Siemens outdoor antenna is in sight of the WiMAX base station (cf. Fig. 1).If a line of sight is not possible, you can reflect the radio waves off neighbouring buildings. To do this, direct the antenna at the building it is to reflect off and not at the base station (cf. Fig. 2). Fig. 1Fig. 2

Please observe the standard DIN VDE 0855-300 and find out more on the Internet athttp://www.dehn.de/www_DE/PAGES_D/service/down/blitzplaner.html (German)Orhttp://www.dehn-usa.com/dehn-Application-Guides-pubcid1.html (English)Antenna cable and antenna connection: It must be possible to connect the outdoor antenna to the Gigaset SE681 WiMAX by means of an antenna cable. Please note that the antenna connection must be protected from the impact of rain and other weather effects.Use cable clamps to attach the cable to the mast. Please note that the cable must be long enough to turn the antenna at a later stage.Antenna alignment:When aligning the antenna, we recommend asking a second person to run the connec-tion wizard on the PC and to check the reception quality on the screen; see Chapter "Connection wizard" on page 26. After installation:Tighten all screw connections to the torques listed in the installation instructions. Secure the antenna cable with cable clamps and cable ties. The cable must be protected from exposure to pressure and tension.iAligning the antenna using acoustic signalsIf neither you nor the assistant are able to check the signal strength on screen while the antenna is being aligned, you can monitor it via a radio system. To do this you will need, for example, two cordless phones, mobile phones or radio devices:ìActivate Tone on on the configuration PC.ìEstablish an internal connection between the two handsets and switch on the loudspeaker on both devices.ìLeave one handset next to the configuration PC and carry the other with you (belt clip).You will now be informed of the signal strength by means of beeps. The closer together the sequence of beeps, the better the connection quality.

NAT is a method for converting IP addresses (mainly pri-vate IP addresses) in a network to one or more public IP addresses on the Internet. With NAT, several network components in a LAN can share a public IP address to connect to the Internet. The network components of the local network are hidden behind the IP address registered on the Internet. NAT is often used as part of the firewall in a network because of this security function. BridgeA bridge connects several network segments to form a joint network, e.g. to make a TCP/IP network. The segments can have different physical characteristics, e.g. different link-ing such as Ethernet and wireless LANs. Local networks can be expanded by linking indi-vidual segments via bridges. dBDecibel (a tenth of a Bel). Logarithmic unit of measurement for ratios between two cur-rents, voltages, sound levels or powers. In order to depict large value differences clearly and graphically, these are given in dB; e.g. 60 dB corresponds to the factor 1000 relative to the voltage drops.dBmDecibel milliwatt. Power level in decibels relative to 1 milliwatt.DHCPDynamic Host Configuration Protocol. DHCP handles the automatic assignment of IP addresses to network components. DHCP was developed because in large networks – especially the Internet – the defining of IP addresses is very complex as subscribers frequently move, drop out or new ones join. A DHCP server server automatically assigns the connected network components (DHCP clients) dynamic IP addresses from a defined IP pool range, thus saving a great deal of configuration work. In addition, the address blocks can be used more effectively: since not all subscribers are on the network at the same time, the same IP address can be assigned to different network components in succession as and when required. DHCP serverThere is a DHCP integrated into the Gigaset SE681 WiMAX that automatically assigns IP addresses to PCs in the local network.
60GlossaryGigaset SE681 WiMAX / engbt / A31008-N923-R101-2x-7619 / Glossary.fm / 27.3.08Schablone 2007_10_19DNSDomain Name System. DNS permits the assignment of IP addresses to PC or domain names that are easier to remember. A DNS server must administer this information for each local network with an Internet connection. As soon as a page on the Internet is called up, the Web browser obtains the corresponding IP address from the DNS server so that it can establish the connection.On the Internet, the assignment of domain names to IP addresses follows a hierarchical system. A local PC only knows the address of the local name server. This in turn knows all the addresses of the PCs in the local network and the superordinated name servers, which again know addresses and the next superordinated name servers.Domain nameThe domain name is the reference to one or more web servers on the Internet. The domain name is mapped via the DNS service to the corresponding IP address.DownlinkFiles that your Gigaset SE681 WiMAX receives and forwards to your local network. DSLDigital Subscriber Line. DSL is a technique whereby data is transmitted via the conven-tional phone line. To do this, you require suitable phone lines and special technology to be set up by a Provider. As these preconditions are not satisfied in all areas, it is not pos-sible to use DSL in all locations. In order to make use of high-performance Internet access in these areas as well, technologies such as WiMAX, Wi-Fi or satellite connections are implemented.EthernetEthernet is a network technology for local networks (LANs) defined by the IEEE as stand-ard IEEE 802.3. Depending on the network adapter used, the transmission speed on the Ethernet varies between 10 Mbps and 1 Gbps.FirewallFirewalls are used by network operators as protection against unauthorised external access. This involves a whole bundle of hardware and software actions and technologies that monitor and control the data flow between the private network to be protected and an unprotected network such as the Internet.FirmwareDevice software. To correct errors or update the device, a new firmware version can be loaded onto the device's memory (firmware update).Flat rate Flat rate is a particular billing system for Internet connections. The Provider charges a set monthly fee for a certain service package.

FTP is used, for example, to make files available for download or to receive files from other users.Full duplexData transmission operating mode in which data can be sent and received at the same time. FXSForeign Exchange Station. Phone port to which an analogue terminal (phone, fax or answer machine) can be connected. GatewayA gateway connects networks with one another. In contrast to a Router, a gateway is not dependent on protocol, i.e. it is also able to establish connections between networks with a different architecture (protocols, application interfaces etc.). Half duplexOperating mode for data transfer. Only one party can receive or send data at a time.HTTPHypertext Transfer Protocol. Network protocol for the transmission of data, which is mainly used for transmitting and displaying Internet content. HTTP proxyAn HTTP proxy is a server that network components use for their Internet traffic. All requests are sent via the proxy. HubA hub is a central distribution point in a network, to which PCs and other network devices are connected. The hub forwards received data to all connected PCs. For this reason, in large networks, a Switch is recommended to ensure that data is only sent to the PC requesting it.IEEEInstitute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. The IEEE is an international body for defining network standards, especially for standardising LAN technologies, transmis-sion protocols and speeds, and wiring.

Similarly to other standards in the 802 series (e.g. 802.3 Ethernet, 802.11 WLAN), the WiMAX standard is one of the standards for networks. The standard has progressed in accordance with new developments; there are currently two main versions:uIEEE 802.16-2004: WiMAX, which specifies the secure location for connection part-ners.uIEEE 802.16e-2005: Mobile WiMAX, which enables wireless cells to be exchanged during data transmission.IPInternet Protocol. The protocol is responsible for addressing of subscribers in a network using IP addresses, and routes data from the sender to the recipient. In doing so, it decides on the way in which data packets will be forwarded between sender and recip-ient. IP addressAn IP address is the unique network-wide address of a network component in a network based on the TCP/IP protocol (e.g. in a local network or on the Internet). The IP address consists of four parts (each of up to three-figure strings of digits from 0–255) that are separated from one another by full stops (e.g. 192.168.2.1). The IP address is made up of the network number and the number of the network component. Depending on the Subnet mask, one, two or three parts form the network number, the remainder form the network component number. You can find out the IP address of your PC using the ipconfig command. There are two different types of IP address:uPrivate IP address: IP address of a network component within a local network.uPublic IP address: IP address that uses a network component for accessing the Internet. IP addresses can be assigned manually or automatically:uStatic IP address: The IP address is manually assigned to a network component and never changes.uDynamic IP address: The IP address is assigned to the network component by a DHCP server. The IP address of this network component can change each time it registers with a network or at specific time intervals.On the Internet, domain names are normally used instead of the IP addresses. DNS is used to assign domain names to IP addresses.IPTVInternet Protocol Television. You receive your provider's television service via the DSL connection. To do this, you require an IPTV-capable set-top box and the configuration data of your IPTV provider.

A local network links network components so that they can exchange data and share resources. The physical range is restricted to a partic-ular area (a site). A local network can be connected to other local networks or a wide-area network (WAN) such as the Internet.LEDLight Emitting Diode. An LED is an electronic component (semi-conductor) that gener-ates light at low power consumption. LEDs are often used as signal lights for display and UI elements.LoginAccess to a PC or a service, password e.g. for access to the Internet.MAC addressMedia Access Control. The MAC address is used for the globally unique identification of a network adapter. It comprises six parts (hexadecimal numbers), e.g. 00-90-96-34-00-1A. The MAC address is assigned by the network adapter manufacturer and cannot be changed. MbpsMillion bits per second. Specification of the transmission speed in a network.NetworkA network is a group of devices connected in wired or wireless mode so that they can share resources such as data and peripherals. A general distinction is made between local networks (LANs) and wide-area networks (WANs).Network adapterThe network adapter is the hardware device that creates the connection between a net-work component and a local network. The connection can be wired or wireless. An Eth-ernet network card is an example of a wired network adapter. The Gigaset PC Card 108 and the Gigaset USB Adapter 108 are examples of wireless network adapters. A network adapter has a unique address, the MAC address.

A connection can only be established between PCs in a network if they all use the same protocol. The TCP/IP network protocol is the most extensive network protocol, which is also used for connections to the Internet. This must be set up on each PC from which a network connection is to be established. ProtocolA protocol describes the agreements for communicating on a network. It contains rules for opening, administering and closing a connection, as well as about data formats, time frames and handling possible errors. Communications between two applications require different protocols at various levels, e.g. the TCP/IP protocols for the Internet. ProviderA provider (Internet Service Provider) offers access to the Internet for a fee.RJRegistered Jack. Standardised connection, also known as a modular jack.RouterA router directs data packets from one local area network (LAN) to another via the fast-est route. A router enables the connection between networks of different network tech-nologies and this is performed on the basis of a common protocol. For example, it can link a local network with WiMAX technology to the Internet. RSSIReceived Signal Strength Indication. Characteristic value for the signal strength of radio connections, used by communication devices for the automatic selection of a suitable channel. ServerA server makes services available to other network components (clients). The term "server" is often used to refer to a PC. However it can also mean an application that pro-vides a particular service such as DNS, DHCP or a Web service. SMTPSimple Mail Transfer Protocol. The SMTP protocol is a TCP/IP protocol and regulates the exchange of electronic post on the Internet. Your Provider provides you with access to an SMTP server.SubnetA subnet divides a network into smaller units. Subnet maskThe subnet mask determines how many parts of the IP addresses of a network represent the network number and how many parts represent the network component number. If the subnet mask in a network is 255.255.255.0, for example, this means that the first

The first three parts of the IP address of all network components are in this case always the same. SwitchA switch is a central distributor in a wired network, which, unlike a hub, provides intel-ligent distribution of data transfer. The switch only ever forwards a data packet to the subnet or network component the data packet is intended for. Unnecessary transfer of data in the network thus avoided. TAETelecommunications connecting unit (German: Telekommunikations-Anschlussein-heit). Connector for connecting analogue telecommunications devices. F for phone, N for additional devices such as fax or answer machines.TCPTransmission Control Protocol. TCP is part of the TCP/IP protocol family. TCP handles data transport between communication partners (applications). TCP is a session-based trans-mission protocol, i.e. it sets up, monitors and terminates a connection for transporting data.TCP/IPTransmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. Protocol family on which the Internet is based. IP forms the basis of each PC to PC connection. TCP provides applications with a reliable transmission link in the form of a continuous data stream. TCP/IP is the basis on which services such as WWW, Mail and News are built. There are other protocols as well. In order to access the Internet from a PC, TCP/IP must be set up on the PC.UplinkData that your Gigaset SE681 WiMAX forwards from your PC or local network to external sites (e.g. to the Internet). URLUniversal Resource Locator. Globally unique address of a domain on the Internet, e.g. http://www.siemens.com. WANWide Area Network. A WAN is a network that is not restricted to one particular area, such as the Internet. A WAN is run by one or more public providers to enable private access. You access the Internet via a Provider.
