The KA 600i XLR to Mini Connection Cable from Sennheiser enables self-powered audio sources like the MKE 600 camera-mount shotgun to connect to any smartphone device, offering ultimate flexibility to videographers and video journalists. This allows the possibility of professional-quality audio capture to a device that would otherwise produce a very poor result. The coiled cable stretches to a full 15.75." The cable patches a 3-pin female XLR connector to a right-angled 1/8" (3.5mm) TRRS mini jack with iOS compatibility.
