3.5mm Headset Splitter Cable for PC – TRRS Female to Dual TRS Male Y Adapter

Connect a modern single-plug CTIA headset (4-pole TRRS with combined audio and mic) to a desktop PC or laptop that has separate 3.5mm headphone and microphone ports. Gold-plated connectors and oxygen-free copper wire ensure stable, lossless audio transmission.

⚠️ Compatibility Notice: This adapter is compatible with standard CTIA 3.5mm 4-pole headsets (e.g. Samsung, Sony, HyperX, Logitech). It is NOT compatible with Apple EarPods — Apple uses a non-standard pinout that may cause microphone failure or loud static noise.

• ✅ Gold Plated Contacts – 24K gold-plated connectors with oxygen-free copper wire for maximum conductivity and minimal signal loss.
• ✅ Durable Construction – Aluminum housing, nylon braided cable, and strain-relief rings for long-term durability.
• ✅ Compact 20cm Cable – Lightweight and portable, ideal for desk use, travel, and laptop bags.
• ✅ Plug & Play – No drivers required. Works with Windows and compatible PC audio systems.
• ❌ NOT a headphone splitter – Cannot split one audio source into two headphones. The two male plugs are strictly headphone output and mic input.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the main purpose of this cable?
A: It connects a modern single-plug headset (4-pole TRRS with audio and mic) to desktop PCs or laptops that have separate 3.5mm headphone and microphone ports.

Q2: Does it work with Apple EarPods?
A: No. Apple uses a non-standard CTIA wiring pinout. When used with Apple EarPods, the microphone usually fails to work or produces loud static noise. This cable is designed for standard CTIA headsets only.

Q3: Does it support standard Android or third-party headsets?
A: Yes. It fully supports standard CTIA 3.5mm 4-pole headsets, such as those from Samsung, Sony, HyperX, and Logitech.

Q4: Can I plug two headphones into it to share music?
A: No. The two male connectors are strictly split into Audio Output and Microphone Input. It cannot split one audio source into two headphones.

Q5: What should I do if I hear static noise or a hum?
A: Make sure the headset plug is pushed completely into the female socket. If noise persists, try plugging into the rear motherboard audio jacks instead of the front PC panel.

Q6: Why is audio coming out of only one ear?
A: In most cases, the headset 3.5mm jack is not inserted all the way into the splitter's female port. Push it firmly until it clicks into place.

Q7: How long is the cable, and is it durable?
A: The cable is approximately 20cm (8 inches) long. It features gold-plated connectors and oxygen-free copper wire. Avoid prolonged severe bending near the joints to extend its lifespan.

Q8: What if audio works but the microphone is not picking up any sound?
A: Check the following steps:
1. Ensure the plug with the pink/microphone icon is connected to the PC's Mic In port.
2. Check if your headset has an inline mute switch that is turned on.
3. Go to Windows Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone and ensure microphone access is enabled.
4. Set the audio input device to your default microphone in Windows Sound Settings.
