SR-C2002 - 3.5mm Female TRRS to Lightning Adapter Cable
The Saramonic SR-C2002 is a short adapter cable with an Apple Lightning connector on one end and a 1/8“ (3.5mm) TRRS female jack on the other. It lets you easily connect TRRS microphones, wireless receivers, mixers, and other audio gear directly to the Lightning port on an Apple iPhone or iPad. Plug-in power is provided, which makes it compatible with a large number of microphones. The SR-C2002 can also add a fully functional headphone jack to an Apple device that lacks one.
Our Review
Saramonic SR-C2002 — The Missing Link for iPhone Content Creators on the Road
The gist: A pocket-sized MFi-certified adapter that unlocks any 3.5mm TRRS microphone or wireless receiver on a Lightning iPhone — no extra dongle needed.
- Lightning-native plug-in power: Supplies power to compatible mics directly through the Lightning port, skipping the need for battery-powered microphones in most setups.
- Ultra-compact: Only 3" (7.6 cm) long and 0.25 oz — disappears in a camera bag or pocket alongside a travel mic kit.
- Gold-plated connectors: Resist corrosion through humid coastal or tropical environments where cheaper adapters degrade.
- Headphone passthrough: The TRRS standard lets it double as a headphone adapter, returning full microphone + audio monitoring in one cable.
B&H Photo lists the SR-C2002 as MFi-certified and compatible with TRRS wireless receivers and lavalier mics for direct-to-iPhone recording workflows.
Best for: iPhone content creators and travel vloggers with a Lightning-port iPhone (14 or earlier) who want plug-and-play mic connectivity. Skip it if: You have an iPhone 15 or newer — those use USB-C and need a different adapter. Runs ~$12 — check the current price before buying.
