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 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 antenna
Wall duct: 
To connect the Gigaset SX682 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 SX682 WiMAX. 
Setting up the antenna mast: 
There should not be any obstructions (walls, trees etc.) in front of the antenna. 
W
Only 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. 
ì
Only 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.
