Design Manual

SECTION 2: UNDERSTANDING THE MONGOOSE SYSTEM

Rane understands the pain and expense of pulling and managing miles of analog cable throughout a large

audio installation, not to mention the potential for inferior sound quality. The advent and rapid adoption

of digital audio networking has almost ended this cabling and quality nightmare – but not quite. You

have probably utilized one or more of the networking solutions that exist today – for example, CobraNet,

Ethersound, and others. But, as discussed in the introduction, these solutions aren’t appropriate in all

situations. Because placing just a few channels on a large bandwidth network Bundle is inefficient and

expensive, you are probably still using analog cabling in low channel count applications.

Since you’re reading this manual, we can assume that you are seriously considering replacing all this

cabling with less expensive shielded CAT 5e cables and distributing the audio digitally via a RAD network.

Congratulations! You’ve made a wise choice. To help make this transition from analog to digital and from

older audio technology to new, this section provides a thorough explanation of the entire Mongoose

system – as well as suggestions for incorporating it into your larger audio system as efficiently as possible.

The Big Picture

Before diving into the details, let’s take a look at the big picture. The following illustration shows an audio

system that uses analog cables to connect scattered channels to the rack room equipment
