The RODE VXLR 3.5mm TRS to XLR Adapter lets you connect a mic with a TRS connector to a professional camera, recorder, or mixer’s XLR input. There is a 3.5mm female TRS connector at one end and an XLR male connector at the other.
This adapter is the predecessor to the RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS to XLR Adapter with Phantom Power, which converts 12 to 48V phantom power down to 3 to 5V plug-in power.
