The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is a powerful but simple communications device for con-

necting your PC or local area network (

LAN

) to the

Internet

(via

DSL

). It contains an inte-

grated ADSL modem (

ADSL /ADSL2+

) enabling you to access the Internet easily.

You can connect your PC wirelessly to the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl and create a wireless

local area network (

WLAN

). The device supports Super G technology. The transmission

rate in the wireless local area network can be increased to 108 Mbps thanks to channel

bundling. For network security, wireless transmission can be encrypted using the

WPA/WPA2 standard or 64/128-bit WEP.

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl also offers the functions of a PABX for

Internet telephony

(

VoIP

) and fixed network telephony. You can connect up to two traditional analogue ter-

minals and then use these analogue phones both to make calls via the Internet or also

via an existing analogue telephone line. In addition, you can operate

SIP clients

(wire-

less

SIP

telephones and PCs with appropriate software) as PABX extensions and there-

fore also make calls via the Internet or fixed network.

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl allows several users to access the Internet simultaneously.

A single user account can be shared if your

Internet service provider

permits this. If you

want to surf the Internet and make calls using the Internet at the lowest possible cost,

the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is a convenient and simple solution.

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl provides the new WPS function for wireless connection of

PCs or notebooks. You can activate this function via the user interface or – depending

on the hardware type of your device – with the registration (Scan) button on the back

panel. If the other clients in your wireless network such as the Gigaset PC Card 300 also

support WPS, you can connect with a simple click.

Do your part for the environment (ECO)

Thanks to a switch-mode power supply unit, all of our broadband products

offer significantly reduced power consumption - for more energy-efficient

use. Each device also lets you variably reduce WLAN transmission power

based on the size of your home or office network via the user interface,

which helps make a cleaner environment for everyone. You can even turn

the WLAN off completely when you're not using it. Some of our broadband products

also offer you the convenience of switching the WLAN on or off with a handy button

directly on the device itself - or have a timer do it for you. It's our goal to ensure a sus-

tainable economic process by using an environmentally friendly production and man-

agement system - which makes it easy for us to meet the strict ISO 14001 standards for

international environmental management.

Wired local area network (Ethernet)

In a wired local area network, PCs communicate with one another via an Ethernet cable.

When the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is used, it establishes the connection between the

PCs. For this it has four Ethernet LAN ports for connecting four PCs. The PCs have to be

equipped with a network port (Ethernet). New PCs frequently already have this port. For

older PCs you need to install an Ethernet network card. The PC and the Ethernet LAN

port on the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl are connected using an Ethernet cable (CAT5).

There is one supplied. You can obtain additional Ethernet cables from your retailer.

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl allows all PCs to access the Internet simultaneously.
