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 — Clean Audio from Your Desk Mic to Any Device

The gist: A compact patch cable that bridges TRS microphones to TRRS-input phones and tablets — the low-cost fix for clear audio on mobile interviews and remote recordings.

Device flexibility: Lets a TRS field or desk mic plug directly into the headphone/mic combo jack on any iOS or Android device — useful when your laptop is occupied.
Coiled design: Extends 170–400mm and retracts to a compact coil; keeps your desk tidy and doesn’t add cable clutter to a mobile recording setup.
Gold-plated connectors: Corrosion-resistant for reliable signal quality through repeated plug-in/out cycles in daily use.
Right-angle plugs: Low-profile entry at both ends keeps the phone lying flat on a stand without a cable jutting out awkwardly during a recorded call.

RØDE’s official spec page lists the SC7 as compatible with both iOS and Android TRRS devices, confirmed alongside the VideoMicro and other TRS mic outputs in their accessory ecosystem.

Best for: Remote workers who want to use a dedicated TRS microphone with a smartphone or tablet for calls, podcast recordings, or video interviews. Skip it if: Your microphone already terminates in a TRRS plug or you’re connecting directly to a USB or XLR interface. Runs ~$7 — check the current price before buying.
