RODE SC4 3.5mm TRS Female to 3.5mm Right-Angle TRRS Male Adapter Cable for Smartphones

The RODE SC4 is a compact and essential adapter cable designed to connect microphones with a 3.5mm TRS output (standard camera microphones) to smartphones and tablets that use a 3.5mm TRRS input (headset-style jack). It enables seamless compatibility between professional on-camera microphones and mobile devices, making it a must-have for mobile content creators, vloggers, and journalists.

With its right-angle TRRS connector, the SC4 ensures a secure and low-profile connection to smartphones, reducing cable strain during handheld use. The adapter features color-coded connectors for easy identification and gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transfer and improved audio quality.

Built with a shielded cable design, it minimizes interference and ensures clean audio capture when recording directly into mobile devices. Compatible with both iOS and Android, the SC4 works perfectly with popular RODE microphones like VideoMic series, as well as third-party mics with TRS outputs.
