FCC Statement
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Rane Corporation
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

General RAD Description
RAD17
The entire family of RAD models interface with HAL or
Mongoose, for digital conversion at the wall. Each converts
analog audio to and/or from 24-bit, 48 kHz digital audio.
Shielded CAT 5e (or better) cable and termination transport four
digital audio channels – two channels each direction – as well
as power, ground and a communications channel, with status
indicators at each RAD, HAL, EXP or Mongoose unit, and in
Halogen or Tracker software. The host HAL or Mongoose autochecks the CAT 5 crimp and verifies audio. All RADs are both
“location-aware” and hot-swappable with 500-foot homerun
connections (66% farther than Ethernet). Light sensors dim the
RAD indicators in dark rooms. Labels can be made and printed
from Halogen or Tracker software.
A RAD17 provides a single audio input from a built-in
omnidirectional boundary layer / PZM pressure zone electret
microphone. It handles extreme temperatures and humidity for
indoor or outdoor applications. It may be used for ambient noise
sensing, surveillance, security, train stations, etc.
The RAD17 mounts in a standard 1-gang US electrical box.
It is only available in black, though the metal grille may be spray
painted to match surroundings. A black Decora™ plate cover is
included.
