The Rode DC-USB1 is a power cable that allows the Rode RØDECaster Pro to be powered from any compatible USB output, making it entirely portable.

It features a locking connector for added security. A high-power (2.4A minimum) USB output is required for operation. For best results, we recommend using a USB power bank* with USB Power Delivery (PD).
