The 3.5mm audio port is a standard connector used for audio devices, allowing users to plug in headphones, speakers, or microphones. It is commonly found on smartphones, laptops, and other electronic devices, providing a simple way to transmit sound. This port is also known as a headphone jack and supports both stereo audio and microphone input. The 3.5mm size refers to the diameter of the plug, which typically has three sections: tip, ring, and sleeve, enabling it to carry audio signals effectively.
