It is ideal for combining separate mic and headphone outputs into one input for all-in-one headsets.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eWhat is a Headset\/Mic Breakout Cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eHeadset\/mic breakouts are used for microphone and headphones combinations where one device uses a single TRRS connection and the other uses separate TRS connections for microphone and headphones. With increases in remote work, streaming, and online gaming, headsets with built-in microphones are becoming more common, as is the need for those headsets to connect to older devices equipped with separate headphones and microphone connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eWhen Would I Use a Headset\/Mic Breakout Cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSome equipment, such as laptops, use separate mic and headphone jacks rather than a single TRRS connection for both. The Hosa YMM-107 enables you to connect a headset with built-in microphone to one of these laptops. Conversely, you may use headphones with a standalone microphone that must now both be connected to a gaming console with a single TRRS input. In this case, the solution would be the Hosa YMM-108. If using a balanced microphone, you would also need the Hosa XVM-100F series microphone cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003eWhat is TRRS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eTRRS is short for tip\/ring\/ring\/sleeve. A TRRS connector allows for two-way communication in devices that are set up to receive both microphone and headphones in a single connection. TRRS cables carry three independent signals, ideal for use with headsets and earbuds with built-in microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_3\"\u003eWhat is TRS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eTRS is short for tip\/ring\/sleeve. A TRS connector is typically used on balanced or stereo cables. For stereo applications, this means it carries independent left and right outputs in a single cable. Balanced cables duplicate the signal along two conductors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hosa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450717040743,"sku":"158122","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/hosa-ymm-108_158122_1_a425113b-c388-4958-9087-1b29fb63d7f9.jpg?v=1787094224","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/hosa-ymm-108-headset-mic-breakout-cable","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
