This USB-C to 2.5mm digital audio cable is designed for connecting compatible USB Type-C phones, tablets, cameras and recording equipment to devices using a 2.5mm audio connection.
The cable features a 90-degree USB-C male connector and a 90-degree 2.5mm four-pole male audio plug. Its coiled spring construction helps reduce loose cable, supports flexible extension and makes the cable easier to store during mobile recording, livestreaming and travel.
This listing is for the digital audio version with a built-in audio conversion chipset. It is intended for USB-C equipment that does not provide native analogue audio through the USB-C port.
Depending on the chipset configuration and connected equipment, the internal electronics convert between USB digital audio and the analogue signal used by the 2.5mm connection. Compatibility with microphone input, headphone output or two-way audio must be confirmed before ordering.
