Nflightcam Audio Recording Cable for Smartphones

• Capture everything you hear in your headset, including ATC audio.
• Noise-canceling audio circuit creates crystal-clear audio recording.
• Quick and easy to install in any aircraft with a standard PJ jack.
• Works with standard twin-plug headsets.
• Works with iPhones and iPad models with a 3.5mm jack and most Android devices.
• Does not work with GoPro cameras, digital video cameras, Sony Action Camera, DSLR cameras, or digital audio recorders. For those, please see our other audio cable offerings.
• This cable is also available in a helicopter version (from the dropdown menu). This variation uses a Male TP-101 plug and a Female U-92 jack (the standard 0.5" 4-conductor plugs used in most civilian helicopters).
• This cable is part of our Nflightcam Cockpit Kit for Smartphones. 

Use this cable to connect your smartphone to your intercom. Plug one end into the phone and the other into a standard PJ jack. The phone will record everything you hear and say through the headset, including intercom and ATC communications.

The cable includes a female plug to connect to your headset so you’re not blocking an intercom jack.

COMPATIBLE WITH:

409 and 409H: iPhone and iPad models with a 3.5mm audio jack and most Android devices with a 3.5mm audio jack. Other smartphones require pairing with their adapters. If you need an Apple Lightning Adapter for your newer iPhone, simply purchase 409-LA or 409H-LA.

409-LA and 409H-LA: Newer iPhone and iPads will need to use an Apple Lightning to 3.5mm adapter.  If you have misplaced the one that came with your iPhone order one with your Audio Recording Cable for Smartphones. This is the certified adapter manufactured by Apple and offered here for customer shopping convenience. Please note that similar adapters manufactured by any company other than Apple do not seem to work with our cable.

409C: Fixed wing Audio Recording Cable for use with iPhone 15 and subsequent models with USB-C connection.

*Not compatible with digital video cameras, DSLR cameras, or digital audio recording devices.  Please see our Digital Audio Recording Cable for these devices.

Why does this cable not work with my video camera or digital audio recorder?

Smartphones use the headphone jack for both audio output and input.  In order to do this, a fourth pole was added to the standard 3.5mm connector.  However, long before the advent of smartphones, digital audio recorders were using the standard 3-pole 3.5mm connector.
