USB 2.0 Extenders and Cables
While the following USB 2.0 extenders can be used with your Studio E70, they
offer limited performance compared to USB 3.0 extenders and cables. To use the
full capabilities, performance, and advanced features of your Studio E70,
Poly recommends using a USB 3.0 extender or cable.
Caution: Do not connect the Sound Control USB extender to the Ethernet
port on the Studio E70.
Connecting the RCU2S-E70 to the Studio E70 Ethernet port will damage the
device, make it inoperable, and void your warranty.
For information on connecting the Studio E70 to the RCU2S-E70 for the Poly
Studio E70, see the RCU2S-E70 USB Application Guide on the Sound Control
website.

System Constraints and Limitations
This section provides information on constraints and limitations when using the Poly Studio E70 camera.
- Camera Framing When Using Zoom Rooms
- Frame Speaker Mode
- Using a 3.5 mm External Audio Solution on a G7500 with a Studio E70 Camera
Camera Framing When Using Zoom Rooms
When using the Poly Studio E70 with a Mac- or Windows-based Zoom Room setup,
the camera only supports Auto framing and manual pan, tilt, and zoom controls.
The Studio E70 doesn’t support speaker framing with this setup.
Frame Speaker Mode
Based on customer feedback, Poly will improve the performance of Frame Speaker
mode in a forthcoming release. If you experience undesired behavior when
Tracking Mode is set to Frame Speaker, Poly advises setting Tracking Mode to
Frame Group.
Using a 3.5 mm External Audio Solution on a G7500 with a Studio E70
Camera
On a G7500 system with a 3.5 mm external audio solution and a Studio E70
camera, G7500 USB audio should be disabled to prevent Studio E70 microphones
from sending unwanted audio to the far site.
Studio E70 camera microphones are for sound source localization and should not
be used to pick up room audio.
