Figure 4: Rear panel of Mongoose

1 Power IEC jack – connects to AC line voltage, 100-240 V, 50-60 Hz.

2 e Power and Locate LEDs on the back panel serve the same purpose as those on the front.

3 e Ethernet Link LED on the back panel serves the same purpose as the one on the front. e

Ethernet LAN LED ﬂashes when the Mongoose detects any Ethernet packets on the network.

4 e CobraNet LEDs (In Use/Conductor and Link/Activity) on the back panel serve the same

purpose as those on the front.

5 e Remote Audio Devices LEDs on the back panel serve a diﬀerent purpose from the ones on the

front. e front panel LEDs provide information about signal activity on each audio channel. e

back panel LEDs indicate the health of the CAT 5 connection between each RAD and the Mongoose.

Just as on the front panel, these LEDs are numbered 1 through 8 which correspond to the numbered

ports on the device. Each LED corresponds with one twisted pair within the CAT 5 cable. If the

twisted pair is functioning properly, the LED displays a solid green light.

� Audio Rx LED – lights solidly if the Mongoose’s receive pair is working properly.

� Audio Tx LED – lights solidly if the Mongoose’s transmit pair is working properly.

� Comm LED – lights solidly if the RAD’s data communications pair is working properly.

� Power LED – lights solidly if the Mongoose is supplying adequate power to the RAD port.

6 Ethernet port – used to connect the Mongoose to an Ethernet switch or directly to a computer.

Note that this Ethernet port contains auto-MDIX functionality, which means that if you connect

directly from this port to a computer, you can use either a standard Ethernet patch cable or a

crossover cable to make the connection. e auto-MDIX functionality takes care of coordinating the

proper connection between the devices.

7 CobraNet ports – used to connect the Mongoose to another CobraNet-enabled device or to a

network switch. Use the Primary port to connect your primary CobraNet network. If you have a

backup CobraNet network, connect the Mongoose to it using the Secondary port. Both ports have

the same Media Access Control (MAC) address. Note that the CobraNet ports do NOT contain

auto-MDIX functionality. erefore, if you use this port to connect the Mongoose directly to another

CobraNet device, you MUST use a crossover cable.

8 Remote Audio Devices ports – used to connect each RAD to the Mongoose via a standard CAT5

cable. You must use a standard Ethernet patch cable for this connection.
