Overview
The RØDELink Newsshooter Wireless TX/RX Kit is a digital 2.4 GHz plug-on wireless system designed to adapt standard XLR microphones. The TX-XLR transmitter provides switchable 48 V phantom power and up to 40 dB of gain, allowing direct integration with condenser shotguns or handheld interview mics, while the RX-CAM receiver outputs via 3.5 mm to camera or recorder inputs. The system operates using Series II 2.4 GHz transmission with frequency hopping and 128-bit encryption, maintaining signal integrity in congested RF environments and enabling license-free operation across regions. With ~4 ms latency, 24-bit / 44.1 kHz transmission, ~112 dB dynamic range, and diversity signal management, it serves as a compact solution for wireless boom or handheld deployment where traditional UHF systems are not required.

- Keep transmitter and receiver in line of sight and move them away from Wi-Fi access points when interference appears.
- Use the headphone output on the transmitter for a local check, then monitor again at the receiving recorder or camera.
- Pair the system before mounting, secure the receiver output cable, and perform a walk test through the real blocking path.
