Røde is announcing RødeLink II professional UHF wireless microphone system at NAB 2026. “RødeLink II signals the next generation of professional wireless microphone systems,” the announcement states. “Built for filmmakers, broadcasters and content creators, RødeLink II features proprietary UHF wireless transmission, offering unparalleled sound quality, best-in-class range, staunch stability and a host of powerful features that set a new industry standard for wireless microphone systems.”
Drawing on the wireless heritage within The Freedman Group, RødeLink II benefits from decades of UHF innovation pioneered by stablemate Lectrosonics. “By leveraging engineering expertise from one of the most respected names in professional wireless audio, the system brings proven UHF performance into a new generation of Røde products, delivering exceptional reliability, interference resistance and operational confidence in demanding RF environments,” the statement continues.
RødeLink II includes two transmitters and a single receiver, designed for seamless dual-channel operation for recording multiple sound sources at once. Each transmitter is paired with a broadcast-grade lavalier microphone featuring locking connectors, delivering detail and secure, quality audio capture for interviews, productions and live performances.
RødeLink II is headlined by 32-bit float on-board recording, allowing users to capture audio directly to a microSD card, no matter how loud or quiet the source. This feature is designed to ensure that no take is ever lost, providing peace of mind in any recording scenario. Additionally, a dedicated timecode I/O port makes it easier to accurately align audio and video, removing the need for complex post-production adjustments.
Built for professionals, RødeLink II features a rugged metal body designed to withstand the rigors of location recording, along with three included removable lithium-ion batteries, a comprehensive accessory kit, all housed in a travel case.
Complementing RødeLink II, Røde is also launching a range of timecode and audio cables designed to provide seamless connectivity. These include the 3.5mm TRS to 5-Pin and 3.5mm TRS to BNC timecode cables, both featuring locking connectors, professional-grade construction, and right-angle designs for a compact, secure setup.
Finally, the 3.5mm TRS to XLRM and XLRM Splitter cables offer premium solutions for connecting microphones and audio sources to professional recording devices, with options for summing stereo channels or splitting them into separate XLR outputs.
