In some environments, it might be not possible to place the Display Hub close enough to the Rally camera.

The cable between the two devices can be extended with a Logitech Strong USB cable, a Rally Camera power source, a Rally Camera power splitter and a USB A/C adapter. Because it is a fiberglass cable, it is only available in lengths of 10m, 25m, and 45m. We do not recommend using a longer USB 3 cable.

Note: If you are using Swytch, this will not work if the room computer is located at the table, as the solution will exceed the max number of USB hops if Swytch is used. This method only applies if the computer is located at the display hub.
