SC15 Lightning to USB-C Cable

RODE SC15 — Digital Audio Link from VideoMic NTG to iPhone for Mobile Production

The gist: A 30cm USB-C to Lightning cable that delivers the RODE VideoMic NTG’s digital audio output directly into a Lightning-port iPhone — a clean, lossless microphone connection for mobile interview and content production setups.

• Digital USB-C to Lightning signal path: Carries audio digitally from the NTG’s USB-C port to the iPhone, preserving signal quality and eliminating the noise floor of an analog 3.5mm connection.
• Right-angle Lightning plug: Sits flush at the phone’s base without protruding, keeping a phone-on-tripod or phone-in-rig setup compact and less likely to catch on a subject’s clothing or furniture.
• MFi-certified for reliable iOS detection: Apple’s certification means the iPhone recognizes the microphone consistently without authentication prompts that could interrupt a take or a live recording.
• 30cm keeps the rig tight: Short working length reduces cable clutter in a compact phone-plus-mic interview setup — no excess to tape down on a desk or client conference table.

RODE’s official specifications confirm the SC15 is MFi-certified and purpose-built to connect the VideoMic NTG via USB-C digital output to Lightning iPhones.

Best for: Mobile content professionals, interview producers, and remote journalists using the RODE VideoMic NTG with a Lightning-port iPhone who need a clean digital audio connection without adapters. Skip it if: You use an iPhone 15 or later (USB-C port, not Lightning), need to charge simultaneously while recording, or your mic uses a 3.5mm connector. Check the current price before buying.
