Hosa XVM-101F cable — XLR female to 3.5 mm TRS right-angle, 0.3 m

Hosa XVM-101F cable is a short, purpose-built connection solution that adapts a balanced XLR female output to a 3.5 mm TRS right-angle plug. At 0.3 m length, the cable provides a compact link between professional microphones or balanced line outputs and camera or recorder mic/line inputs that accept a TRS connection. Its right-angle 3.5 mm plug reduces stress on the input jack and helps keep setups tidy in tight spaces.

Advantages

The cable enables conversion from balanced XLR to TRS without bulky adapters, preserving signal integrity over the short run. The right-angle 3.5 mm plug offers space-saving cable routing on cameras and portable recorders. Its 0.3 m length minimizes cable clutter and reduces the risk of unwanted handling noise compared with longer leads.

Suitable for

• Connecting a microphone with an XLR output to a camera or recorder with a 3.5 mm TRS mic/line input
• Linking a balanced line output to compact audio interfaces or portable recorders
• Short, in-rig connections where space is limited or neat cable routing is required

Key specifications

• Connector A: Female XLR (3-pin)
• Connector B: 3.5 mm TRS right-angle plug
• Length: 0.3 m
• Cable type: Audio interconnect for microphone/line signals
• Signal conversion: Balanced XLR to TRS mic/line

How to use

Plug the XLR female end onto the microphone or balanced line output, ensuring the connector latches securely. Insert the right-angle 3.5 mm TRS plug into the camera, recorder or interface mic/line jack. Use the short length to position the microphone and recorder close together; avoid sharply bending the cable at the connectors and allow gentle cable curves to reduce stress. Confirm input sensitivity and polarity on the target device as needed.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this cable for short-distance connections only; for longer runs or when maintaining full balanced line performance is essential, choose a dedicated balanced cable run or an appropriate transformer/interface. Avoid excessive tension on the right-angle plug and route the cable to prevent repeated flexing at the connector points.
