Detail 01
Mono TS on both ends
One audio channel only. A stereo source connected here loses one side rather than blending both.

HosaCMP310 Mono 3.5 mm Male TS to 1/4 in. Male TS Mono Interconnect Patch Cable 10 ft.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A ten-foot mono cable from 3.5mm to 1/4", for running a small device output into an amp, mixer, or recorder input.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sending a phone or drum machine into an amp or mixer channel
- Connecting a practice device to a powered speaker across a room
- Backup interconnect in a gig bag for odd input combinations
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Stereo playback — mono cable sums to one channel
- Guitars and basses; this is not an instrument cable
- Headphone use, since the 3.5mm end is mono TS
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
10 ft. length
Enough to cross a small stage or reach an amp from a table without coiling slack.
Detail 03
3.5mm to 1/4" ends
Bridges small consumer gear to full-size pro inputs without a stack of screw-on adapters.
Detail 04
Unbalanced line
Fine at this length. Push much further and it starts picking up hum near power gear.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Mono only — stereo sources will drop a channel
- 02Straight plugs, so check clearance behind rack or wall-mounted gear
- 03Use a line input, not a mic input, to avoid distortion
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this to plug my phone into an amp?
Yes. The 3.5mm goes into the headphone jack and the 1/4" into the amp input. Audio arrives mono.
02Will I lose one side of a stereo track?
Yes. Both ends are mono TS, so only one channel passes. For full stereo you need a stereo cable and two inputs.
03Is this an instrument cable for guitar?
No. It is a line-level interconnect. A guitar needs a 1/4" to 1/4" instrument cable.
04Is 10 feet too long for this kind of connection?
No. Ten feet is fine for an unbalanced line run. Keep it away from power cables to avoid hum.
