FAQs

What microphones is this cable compatible with?

This cable is specifically designed for the Sennheiser MKE 200, MKE 400, and XS Wireless Digital Portable Receiver. It features a locking 3.5mm TRS connector for secure attachment.

Can I use this cable with any smartphone?

You can use it with any smartphone, tablet, or laptop that has a USB-C port and supports audio input through that port. Compatibility may vary depending on the device's specific hardware and software.

Does the cable provide power to the microphone?

No, this cable is for audio signal transmission and headphone monitoring. The connected microphone must have its own power source (e.g., internal battery or phantom power).

What is the maximum length of the coiled cable?

The cable features a coiled design to prevent tangling and manage its length. The exact uncoiled length is not specified, but it is designed for close-proximity use.

Can I connect a different type of microphone, like an XLR mic?

No, this cable has a 3.5mm TRS connector and is not designed for XLR microphones. You would need an appropriate adapter or interface for XLR microphones.

Is the blue color significant?

The blue color is an aesthetic choice to match the appearance of the Sennheiser MKE 200 and MKE 400 Mobile Kits, offering a cohesive look for your mobile recording setup.

Troubleshooting

No audio detected on the recording device

Ensure the 3.5mm connector is fully and securely locked into the microphone. Verify that the USB-C connection is firm. Check your device's audio input settings to confirm the USB-C audio device is selected. Test with another compatible microphone or device if possible.

Intermittent audio dropouts

Check that the 3.5mm locking connector is properly engaged. Ensure the USB-C cable is not being stressed or bent sharply. Try a different USB-C port on your device, or test with a different USB-C cable to rule out a faulty cable.

Headphone monitoring is not working

Confirm that your connected headphones are plugged into the headphone jack on your device (if the device has one separate from the USB-C port) or directly into a compatible headphone output on the Sennheiser receiver. Ensure your device's audio settings are configured for monitoring.

Cable is not recognized by the device

Restart your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. Ensure the device's firmware or operating system is up-to-date. Some devices may require specific drivers, though this cable is generally plug-and-play.

Pros and Cons

  • Secure locking connector prevents audio dropouts.
  • Coiled design is neat and avoids tangles during use.
  • Enables headphone monitoring directly from USB-C devices.
  • High-quality audio transmission for professional results.
  • Durable construction for reliable field use.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect the 3.5mm locking connector to your compatible Sennheiser microphone (MKE 200, MKE 400, XS Wireless Digital Portable Receiver). Then, plug the USB-C connector into the corresponding port on your smartphone, tablet, or laptop.

Compatibility: This cable is designed for devices with a USB-C port that supports audio input. Ensure your device's operating system recognizes USB audio devices. It is optimized for the Sennheiser MKE 200, MKE 400, and XS Wireless Digital Portable Receiver, but may work with other devices featuring a 3.5mm TRS output if the USB-C device supports line-in audio via USB-C.

Care: Store the cable in a dry place away from extreme temperatures. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable. To clean, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners.
