Mini USB audio adapter for GoPro Hero 1 2 3 3+

This cable connects a 3.5 mm microphone to the Mini USB port on GoPro Hero 1, 2, 3 and 3+ cameras. It is built for users who need an external mic on those specific models. The female jack accepts standard active clip microphones for direct recording.

Practical limits of the Mini USB interface

The Mini USB connection carries both power and audio on a legacy port that is not found on newer cameras. Adapters for this interface will not fit later GoPro models that use USB-C or proprietary connectors. Buyers who need a microphone solution for current-generation action cameras cannot use this cable.

Questions about this item

Is this the right cable to connect an external microphone with a 3.5 mm plug to my GoPro Hero 3+?

Yes, the Mini USB male end fits the Hero 1, 2, 3 and 3+ port while the 3.5 mm female jack accepts a standard microphone connector for external audio recording.

Will the Mini USB connection carry both power and audio signals to the camera simultaneously?

The cable is wired as an audio adapter only; it routes the microphone signal from the 3.5 mm jack into the camera's Mini USB audio input without providing external power to the GoPro.
