PRODUCT FEATURES

Unboxing the System
The exceptionally lightweight and compact bodypack transmitter lets you connect a Sennheiser or Sennheiser-compatible lavalier or headset mic equipped with a locking 3.5mm connector. The transmitter is designed to only transmit signal from a mic (not from a mixer or recorder).
The transmitter can be easily concealed in your pocket or discreetly attached to your waist with the included belt clip.
The equally discreet and lightweight receiver mounts to your camera shoemount with the supplied adapter. Connect its 3.5mm output to the 3.5mm audio input of your camera via the included coiled cable, and you're ready to turn the system on.
Plug In, Turn On: It Works
The 1-button, 1-LED concept with single-button interface and status indicator effortlessly handles power and linking tasks for you.
The receiver and transmitter are pre-paired at the factory so when you turn on the system, it works—without the need for any additional button pressing.
Step Up to Sennheiser Sound Quality
Sennheiser wireless mic systems are an industry standard, prized by professionals for their clarity and reliability. The XSW-D system allows first-time and budget-conscious users to get their hands on genuine Sennheiser sound quality without breaking the bank.
Clean Audio Without Drop Outs
Nothing ruins a take like hearing the weather report coming through your mic. Unlike traditional analog wireless systems, the XSW-D digital system operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, protecting the integrity of your signal from interruptions and drop outs caused by TV channels, radios, or other sources.
Thanks to Sennheiser's channel allocation and interference management technology, the system selects the best operating frequency and automatically switches to a clean channel to provide reliable transmission at a distance up to 250' line of sight.
Expand Your System as Your Needs Grow
The functionality of this XSW-D PORTABLE BASE SET can easily be expanded by adding XSW-D Series transmitters and receivers, as your needs evolve.
With this set, adding the XSW-D XLR plug-on transmitter allows you to connect a dynamic handheld microphone for man-on-the-street-style interviews or a self-powered shotgun mic for booming.
License-Free Operation Worldwide
Because the XSW-D system operates in the license-free 2.4 GHz band, you don't have to worry about local licensing laws, frequency coordination, and other technical hassles.
Simply let the system pick a channel for you and start recording, whether you're working at home or anywhere in the world.
