Rode RX-CAM RECEIVER Camera-Mount Digital Wireless Receiver

The Rode RX-CAM RECEIVER Camera-Mount Digital Wireless Receiver is a camera-mount wireless receiver compatible with RODELink digital wireless systems for videographers, podcasters, and mobile journalists.

Easy to use and fast to set up, the RX-CAM mounts on the shoe of your DSLR/mirrorless camera without adding much weight. Plug it into the 3.5mm mic input of your camera using the the included output cable. Additionally, the receiver can be clipped on a belt or mounted using the 3/8″-16 thread at the bottom.

The RX-CAM is a camera-mounted wireless receiver for the RØDELink digital wireless system. It features an OLED display with information on level, battery status (receiver and transmitter), mute and channel selection. The unit can be mounted on a standard camera shoe mount, 3/8″ thread or belt-clip, and for added versatility the shoe mount can be located in one of two positions.

The RX-CAM runs up to 30 hours on two AA batteries and can be powered via USB with a wall power source or a portable battery, while in operation.

Receiver with OLED Display

• The OLED display shows critical information for the receiver as well as the transmitter, including battery status, signal level, mute status, and channel selection for both units.
• The unit features a high-output level with 0 dB, -10 dB, or -20 dB gain adjustment, which lets you turn down the camera gain for cleaner recordings with less hiss.
• Lightweight (at 6.7 oz), the RX-CAM features a detachable shoemount with a rounded base that lets you conveniently angle the unit on top of your camera.
• The receiver’s shoemount adapter can be swapped, allowing it to be belt clipped, mounted on cameras and tripods, or used in an audio bag.
• The included cable connects the receiver’s output to the 3.5mm audio input of any DSLR or mirrorless camera.
• Alternatively, the VXLR 3.5mm to XLR adapter (available separately) allows you plug your system into the XLR input of a camcorder or recording device.

Simple and Flexible Operation

• The RX-CAM uses an intuitive, single-button interface for frequently used basic functions including power and muting.
• Additional buttons offer more advanced controls—without elaborate menu diving—over audio levels, additional pairing, and channel selection (if you’re using multiple systems).

Other Features

• Up to 30 hours on two AA batteries.
• Also operates powered via USB with a wall power source or a portable battery.
• 4 ms maximum latency.
• 128-bit encryption for security.
• Designed and made in Australia.

Clean and Reliable Sound

• RODELink employs Series II 2.4 GHz digital transmission, which constantly monitors and hops between frequencies to maintain a clean transmission, at a range of up to 330’.
• To ensure clear communication, the system sends the audio on two separate frequencies (frequency diversity) and uses the cleanest signal.
• The system transmits a strong signal at the selected frequency to overcome interference even in busy 2.4 GHz (Wi-Fi) environments. For optimal performance, users are encouraged to maintain as direct a line of sight as possible between the transmitter and receiver.

Note: Each RODELink system creates a wireless peer-to-peer connection allowing the transmitter and the receiver to operate as a pair. This means that the transmitter can transmit audio to only one receiver at a time. Conversely, the receiver can only receive audio from one transmitter at a time.
