SC7 - 3.5mm TRS to TRRS Microphone Patch Cable

$6.75

The SC7 is a high-quality shielded patch cable, designed to allow the RODE VideoMicro or other microphones to connect to TRRS compatible devices such as the iPhone or Galaxy or Pixel. The gold-plated contacts are colour coded, with grey indicating the TRRS output. The cable is colour matched to the red TRS to TRS cable that is supplied with the VideoMicro, and is easily fitted by inserting the TRS (black) jack into the rear of the microphone and the TRRS end (grey) into the smartphone or tablet.

RØDE SC7 TRS–TRRS Cable — Unlock Your Mic for Smartphone Filming

The gist: The single cable that bridges a professional TRS microphone to your smartphone’s TRRS jack — essential for lightweight travel vlogging rigs.

Right connection, right away: Converts any 3.5mm TRS microphone output (like the VideoMicro) to the TRRS input your iPhone or Android expects — no adapter hunting required.
Coiled, not tangled: Extends 170–400mm and springs back to a compact coil, surviving weeks in a camera bag without knotting.
Gold-plated contacts: Corrosion-resistant connectors that maintain a clean signal connection even after heavy outdoor use.
Right-angle plugs: Low-profile connectors sit flush to the mic and phone, reducing stress on the port during movement or mounting.

RØDE’s official product page confirms the SC7 is compatible with both iOS and Android TRRS devices, making it the standard pairing cable for the VideoMicro and similar TRS field mics.

Best for: Travel vloggers and creators using a TRS microphone with a smartphone as their primary camera. Skip it if: Your mic already has a TRRS output or you’re shooting into a camera with a dedicated TRS mic port. Runs ~$7 — check the current price before buying.
