How to Install Logitech Rally Microphone Pod Coupler
Follow these straightforward steps to incorporate the Rally Microphone Pod Coupler into your existing Rally Mic Pod setup. This guide assumes you are upgrading an established Rally configuration with standard CAT cables.
Step 1: Power down and prepare the system. To avoid any incidental signal interruption, ensure the Rally console or control unit is in a safe idle state before modifying mic connections.
Step 2: Locate the CAT cable connection on the Rally Mic Pod. Identify the cable that links the mic pod to the main Rally base or trunk line.
Step 3: Disconnect the CAT cable from the Rally Mic Pod. Gently unplug the existing cable at the mic pod end, keeping the connector and port clean and undamaged.
Step 4: Insert the Rally Microphone Pod Coupler between the mic pod and the CAT cable. Connect the coupler to the mic pod’s CAT connector first, then attach the CAT cable to the coupler’s opposite end, ensuring a snug, secure fit with no wiggling.
Step 5: Reconnect the other end of the CAT cable to the Rally base or trunk line as you normally would. Verify that all connections are firmly seated and aligned with standard CAT cable precautions (no excessive bending or tension).
Step 6: Power on the system and run a quick audio test. Check microphone pickup across seating areas to confirm that the extension maintains clear signal, proper sensitivity, and synchronized timing with the rest of the Rally components.
Step 7: Tidy up the installation. Use cable management solutions as needed to keep runs clean and to avoid accidental tugging on the coupler or cables. Label connections if you are managing multiple pods in a larger room.
