RODE SC21 — Connect Wireless GO II to Your iPhone in Seconds
The gist: A 30cm USB-C to Lightning cable that plugs the RODE Wireless GO II receiver directly into Lightning-port iPhones — the missing link for traveling creators who want wireless lavalier audio feeding cleanly into their iPhone setup.
- Wireless GO II + AI-Micro compatible: Provides the specific USB-C to Lightning connection the RODE Wireless GO II and AI-Micro receivers require for direct digital input to iPhones with Lightning ports.
- Straight connector design: Unlike angled alternatives, straight connectors on both ends allow the cable to sit flat whether the phone is in portrait or landscape orientation without straining the port.
- 30cm working length: Just long enough to connect a receiver clipped to a phone mount or cage to the Lightning port, without excess cable looping out of frame.
- MFi-certified: Apple-certified so your iPhone recognizes the audio input instantly — no permission prompts or unreliable detection to interrupt a shot.
RODE’s official SC21 page confirms compatibility with the Wireless GO II and AI-Micro, MFi certification, and the straight-connector design, distinguishing it from the right-angle SC15.
Best for: iPhone-based travel videographers using the RODE Wireless GO II who want a dedicated, reliable cable to connect the wireless receiver to their Lightning-port phone. Skip it if: You own an iPhone 15 or later with a USB-C port (the SC22 is the right cable), need simultaneous charging while recording, or your RODE product uses a 3.5mm output.
