RTÉ 2XM is an Irish radio station broadcasting on DAB only, as part of RTÉ's digital radio lineup. It plays rock, indie, metal and nu metal. The station is considered RTÉ 2fm's 'sister' station. It carries no advertising or DJs, just music and identification.

Of the digital-only stations, it is the first to have carried live content, with music from the Oxegen festival during July 2007 and the Electric Picnic and PlanetLove Summer Session festivals during September 2007. This continued in 2008 with the PlanetLove Winter Session in February.

It was added to the DTT pilot in late October 2007
