Rode Boompole Clips 5-Pack Snap-On Cable Management Rings

Rode Boompole Clips: The 5-Pack That Silences Cable Slap on Every Take

Every boom operator knows the sound. The XLR cable swinging loose along the pole, slapping the metal during the wide shot, picking up handling noise on the dialogue track that no amount of post-production EQ can clean up. Rode's Boompole Clips solve this exact problem — a five-pack of snap-on plastic cable management rings that keep the cable tight against the pole exterior from grip to microphone. Quiet boom, clean track, no edit-out points.

Snap-On Installation in Seconds, Repositionable Mid-Shoot

The clips snap onto any Rode boompole — Micro, Mini, standard, or Pro — without tools. Slide one open, click it around the pole at the chosen position, run the cable through it, and continue. They reposition just as fast when the cable run changes for a different microphone or rig configuration. Most operators run five clips evenly spaced along a full 10-foot broadcast pole, or three to four along the shorter Micro and Mini Boompoles, with the leftover clip held as a kit spare.

Universal Rode Boompole Compatibility — and Most Third-Party Poles Too

The snap-ring inner diameter accommodates every Rode boompole section diameter, so the same five clips work whether the operator is running a Micro Boompole today and a full Boompole Pro tomorrow. Most aftermarket broadcast poles in the same diameter range — K-Tek, Auray, generic studio poles — are also compatible. There is no model-specific clip to track and no compatibility headache when the kit grows.

For Every Boom Operator Who Has Edited Out Cable Slap from a Take

The Boompole Clips are a kit-completer accessory. Nobody buys these in isolation; everyone with a working boompole eventually needs them. They replace gaffer tape that damages the pole finish, replace zip ties that have to be cut off between shoots, and replace the lost factory clips that came with an older pole. At 0.7 ounces total for the full 5-pack, they add nothing to operator load and solve a problem that ruins otherwise-perfect takes.
