What's a cord with 3.5-inch jack plugs at both ends, called?
Flor Lynch
Hi,
Yep. That’s my question. What's a cord with a 3.5-inch jack plug at each
end, called? (Someone who apparently doesn’t have one, wants one.) Thanks.

Surely not. How about XX or YY cable, something like that? Let's say you want to connect the mic socket of a small recording device to the headphone socket of a radio or other playing device. (I'm too far away from the user.)

Oh, you probably meant 'line-in' cable. But that could be of different types, I would think.

Not sure, but the FIMS devices refer to that as line in mode, and they refer to a plug plugged into both ports, and recording that way. However, as I said, I could be wrong. Sent from an iPad

well, line in cable. It's the thing, that takes both the headphone, and external microphone ports.

How about a 3.5-inch male-to-male audio cable? Putting that into Amazon pops up the right thing...

Not certain of just what they might be called now, but when I was a teenager I believe we called them 'patch cords'. The plugs were known as, the standard headphone, the miniplug and the sub-miniplug. They also came in to types, sterrio and monos. Hope I spelled everything correctly? Thanks and Have A Great Day! de Jim.

Hi.
Yeah. I’ve heard it referred to as a patch cord before. But I’d forgotten
the term!

I believe it is called a master-slave cable.Although in my Logitech headset, it is just a cord. My husband and I really like it, because it will pull out rather than be strained.

I also have used them in the past from one recorder for copying, one end

in output of one recorder and the other in input of the other to copy cassettes way back when I was working, and cassettes were high tech of the day, so you know I'm not kidding when I say way back. Bye for now, Carolyn

Oh yes. Patch cords were what they were called back with the cassette recorders.

hmmm, that cable can be found at walmart. they come in 3 4 and 6 foot sizes and the actual jack is 3/8 (3 eighths) inch plug and is a stereo patch cable that can be used as a cable from the output of a computer to the input of a digital recorder in to the mic plug in. i have one that i connect from my double talk speech synthesizer to a headphone set that has a 3/8 plug input jack and works quite well. when the cable get worn and starts shorting out, i simply replace the cable and i am good to go again without having to purchase a new set of headphones.

It’s not 3.5-inch. It’s 3.5 milimeter, and it’s a plug, not a
jack. You just ask for a cable with a 3.5mm plug on each end. It’s
not called anything special. You just ask for it by the size and type of
plug you want on each end. You can ask for it like this: a cable with a
male 3.5mm on each end, to make sure you have said the correct thing, since
people seem to get plugs and jacks mixed up. The plug is a male end, and
the jack is a female end. In this case, you need two male ends.
Pam.

People also refer to them as patch cords. But you still have to refer to the size of the plug and/or the length of the cable. Pam.

Yes, even if you say line-in cable, you still have to refer to what you want on the ends, what type of plug. Pam.

No, line-in mode is correct. You certainly don't want to use the microphone mode. That would be the wrong impedence. Pam.
