3.5mm connectors, also referred to as “aux”, “mini”, or “⅛” connectors, are found on many small electronic devices. They can be used as audio inputs or stereo outputs. An XLR connector is a 3-pin audio connector type most often used with microphones. Some electronic devices will be designed for a 3.5mm microphone input, such as cameras. Since most common microphones used with cameras, such as boom mics, utilize an XLR connector, a 3.5mm to XLR microphone cable is the ideal solution.
