XLR Female (3-pin): Plugs into a microphone or other professional audio equipment.
TRS 3.5mm Male (1/8"): Connects to cameras, laptops, or portable recorders that accept 3.5mm stereo inputs.
Length: 1.5 meters (~5 feet), which gives a bit of room for flexible mic placement.
This is ideal when:
You’re using a professional mic with a camera or laptop.
You’re doing field recording, podcasting, or streaming with gear that doesn’t have an XLR input.
Phantom Power: This cable does not transmit phantom power. So if your mic needs it (like a condenser mic), this setup won’t work unless the mic has its own power source.
Mono to Stereo: Most XLR mics are mono. A good adapter cable will map the mono signal to both L/R channels of the TRS input. Check that the cable handles this.
Compatibility: Not all devices accept mic-level signals through a 3.5mm TRS jack (some expect line-level or need plug-in power). Make sure your device supports external mics.
