Rode SC4 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter Cable for Camera Mics and Wireless Receivers

3.5mm Adapter for Connecting Microphones to Smartphones and Tablets The Rode SC4 Adapter is designed to connect microphones with a standard 3.5mm TRS output to the TRRS headphone jack found on smartphones and tablets. It allows cameras and microphones originally intended for recorders or cameras to work properly with mobile devices, making it a practical solution for mobile video recording, interviews, podcasting, and content creation on iOS and Android platforms. Built for TRS to TRRS Signal Conversion This adapter converts a 3.5mm TRS microphone signal into a TRRS format that smartphones and tablets require for external microphone input. Without proper signal conversion, many microphones will not function correctly when connected to mobile devices. The SC4 ensures proper channel routing so audio is captured clearly and reliably during recording. Compatible with iOS and Android Recording Devices The SC4 is designed to work with both iOS and Android smartphones and tablets that use a 3.5mm TRRS headset jack. This broad compatibility makes it suitable for creators who record across multiple mobile platforms or switch between devices for different production needs. Right-Angle Connector for Secure Mobile Connections Featuring a right-angle 3.5mm TRRS male connector, the SC4 reduces strain on the device’s headphone jack and helps keep cables neatly routed along the device body. This design supports more secure connections when recording handheld, using a phone mount, or working with compact mobile rigs. Gold-Plated Connectors for Reliable Audio Transfer The adapter uses color-coded, gold-plated connectors to help preserve signal integrity and reduce the risk of corrosion over time. The shielded cable construction helps minimize interference and unwanted noise, supporting consistent audio quality in a wide range of recording environments. Compact Accessory for Mobile Recording Kits Small and lightweight, the SC4 is easy to store in a pocket, camera bag, or mobile recording kit. Its simple design allows quick setup when switching between camera-based and smartphone-based recording workflows.
