RØDE SC16 USB-C Cable — The Short Cable That Keeps Your Vlog Audio Tangle-Free
The gist: A purpose-built 30cm USB-C cable designed for RØDE microphones — the clean, compact link between your VideoMic NTG and a USB-C camera or smartphone.
- Right-angle connector: The 90° USB-C plug routes cleanly along the body of a camera or phone without a loop of cable hanging off the port — critical for handheld and gimbal shooting.
- Integrated cable grip: Built-in grip clips into the VideoMic NTG shock mount’s cable management system, eliminating cable rattle and keeping the mic/camera connection solid during movement.
- Short 30cm length: Sized specifically for mic-to-device runs — no coiling excess cable during a one-person travel shoot or when your gear is already packed tight.
- Broad RØDE compatibility: Works with VideoMic NTG, NT-USB Mini, Wireless GO II, and RØDECaster Pro — one cable covers multiple RØDE devices in your kit.
B&H Photo lists the SC16 as a straight-to-right-angle USB-C cable with “rugged connectors and strain relief sleeves for years of reliable use,” built to RØDE’s manufacturing tolerances.
Best for: Travel content creators who use RØDE USB-C microphones and want a neat, vibration-free cable connection for handheld or gimbal setups. Skip it if: your microphone connects via 3.5mm — the SC16 is USB-C only. Runs around $13 — check the current price before buying.
