Logitech Rally vs Rally Plus vs Rally Bar: Which to Choose?
Rally (Modular system): Separate 4K camera, speakers, and microphone pods. Most flexible for medium to large rooms.
Rally Plus: Adds an additional speaker and up to 7 expansion microphone pods. Best for rooms 10 to 20 people.
Rally Bar / Rally Bar Mini: All-in-one unit. Camera, speaker, and microphone in one device. Rally Bar Mini for huddle rooms (2 to 6 people), Rally Bar for medium rooms (6 to 12 people).
What Is in the Logitech Rally Box
- 4K camera with pan/tilt/zoom and 15x HD zoom
- Display hub (connects camera, speakers, microphone, and PC)
- Cable hub (connects display)
- Remote control
- HDMI and USB cables
- Power adapters
*Rally Plus adds: Additional speaker + display hub extension for longer cable runs*
Step-by-Step Setup
Step 1: Position the Camera
Mount above or below the display at eye level. For rooms under 6 metres: below the display works. For rooms 6 to 10 metres: above the display provides better angle coverage.
Use the included 1/4-20 mount or optional ceiling mount bracket for a clean installation.
Step 2: Position Microphone Pods
Rally comes with one microphone pod. Place centrally on the conference table. For tables longer than 3 metres, add an expansion pod at the far end.
Cable runs from microphone pod to display hub are magnetic snap connectors — easy and tool-free.
Step 3: Connect the Display Hub to Your PC or Room System
- One USB-C or USB-A cable to the conference room PC or laptop
- HDMI from display hub to the room display (second HDMI for content sharing)
- Power the display hub from included adapter
Step 4: Speaker Placement
Position speakers on either side of the display, connected to the display hub via the included modular cable.
Step 5: First-Time Setup
- Download Logitech Sync from logitech.com/sync
- Register your device and claim warranty
- Update firmware (critical — do this before first use)
- Configure camera presets: set default position, zoom level
