The Heckler AV Cart is a purpose-built rolling platform engineered to host the Logitech Rally Bar family—Rally Bar, Rally Bar Mini, and Rally Bar Huddle—while keeping installations tidy and serviceable. Designed and made in Arizona, the cart is TAA compliant and listed to UL/IEC 62368-1, making it suitable for government and enterprise deployments. It ships as a compact, flat-pack unit via standard small-package carriers to avoid freight complexity, and the platform accommodates direct mounting of 50- to 75-inch screens using VESA 400 patterns on the vertical supports.
At its core the product combines robust construction with deployment-focused features: a precision-welded steel frame finished in a fine-texture powder coat, a removable Device Panel for compute and cable terminations, a Control Shelf sized for Logitech Tap or other VESA-mount touch controllers, and a dedicated Cart Mount for Rally Bar devices. The cart is nestable so multiple units store compactly, and the design keeps cable entry and exit points accessible without interfering with the device’s retention mechanisms.
Design and compatibility
The cart mount supports the entire Rally Bar series, so you can standardize on one platform while choosing the conferencing device that matches each room. Install the Rally Bar above or below the screen using the included hardware, and select either level mounting or a 10-degree downward tilt to optimize sight lines for seated or standing participants. The cart also supports mounting 50- to 75-inch displays with VESA 400 points attached directly to the cart’s vertical supports, allowing a single cart configuration to serve a wide range of room sizes.
Physical build and finish
The frame is a precision-welded steel assembly protected by a durable powder coat, chosen to resist wear during frequent moves. The cart was engineered for both aesthetics and durability: cable managers double as bumpers to protect finishes when units nest together, and finish-preserving details reduce blemishes during fleet staging. Because it is nestable, organizations can stage dozens of units compactly and then roll each cart to its final location, simplifying fleet logistics and storage.
Installation and serviceability
Assembly is intentionally fast and repeatable: the main cart structure is secured with four socket-head bolts, letting installers configure the Cart Mount, Device Panel, and Control Shelf on a bench and then bolt the completed assembly to the cart onsite. This workflow is the same whether you build one unit or a hundred. The Device Panel provides direct access to adapters and cables and flips open after removing two screws for rapid maintenance, while the cart mount preserves Rally Bar retention features and keeps cable access points unobstructed for serviceability.
Power and cable management
Cable routing for Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini runs internally through the mount so external runs stay uncluttered. The cart accepts a standard power strip (an optional Tripp Lite power strip is often used) to consolidate power delivery, and cable managers guide and protect cords. These features combined result in tidy, serviceable installations that minimize downtime during upgrades or troubleshooting.
Mobility, shipping, and included items
Moving the cart is made effortless by oversized twin-wheel casters with sealed swivel and wheel bearings for quiet, smooth travel across hard floors and carpet. Tread guards keep cords from wrapping around wheels, and a total-lock brake system simultaneously locks wheel rotation and caster swivel for stable on-screen use. The cart ships knocked-down in a flat-pack carton sized for carriers such as DHL, FedEx, and UPS, which avoids freight quotes and LTL scheduling—an important logistic advantage for rollouts.
What arrives in the box is everything needed to assemble and deploy: the Heckler AV Cart main structure with casters, the Device Panel, the Control Shelf, the Cart Mount designed specifically for Rally Bar devices, and assembly tools. Note that Logitech devices are not included; the cart is sold as the hardware platform to host Logitech Room Solutions for video conferencing.
In summary, the Heckler AV Cart blends durable construction, thoughtful cable access, and smooth mobility to simplify room deployments for the Logitech Rally Bar family. Whether you need a single portable unit or a fleet of nestable carts for multiple rooms, the platform is built to accelerate installation, protect finishes during transport, and keep AV systems accessible for maintenance.
