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. (For optimal results, use of the XSW-D is recommended in environments with limited Wi-Fi / 2.4 GHz traffic.)

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. The ever-popular ME 2-II lavalier microphone delivers a natural sound optimized for speech intelligibility. Its omnidirectional polar pattern ensures that the sound remains consistent, even when the talent's head moves away from the mic.

Easy 2.4 GHz Digital Wireless

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, away from interruptions and dropouts caused by TV and radio channel interference. Thanks to Sennheiser's channel allocation and interference management technology, the system selects the best operating frequency and automatically switches to a clean channel, providing reliable transmission at a distance up to 250' line of sight. For optimal performance, users are encouraged to maintain as direct a line of sight as possible between the transmitter and receiver.

Expand Your System as Your Needs Grow

The functionality of this XSW-D PORTABLE LAVALIER 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 FEMALE TX 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. For clearer speech in noisy environments, you can substitute the included lav mic with a Sennheiser-compatible headset mic.

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.
