Looks like a 3.5 mm jack - Consumer electronics devices such as digital cameras, camcorders, and portable DVD players use 3.5 mm connectors for composite video and audio output. Typically, a TRS connection is used for mono unbalanced audio plus video, and a TRRS connection for stereo unbalanced audio plus video. Cables designed for this use are often terminated with RCA connectors on the other end.
Hands-free sets and headsets often use 3.5 mm or 2.5 mm connectors. Phone connectors are used for mono audio out and an unbalanced microphone (with a shared ground). Four-conductor TRRS phone connectors are used to add an additional audio channel such as microphone input added to stereo output.
Here are some possible pin-outs:
TRRS Standards[edit]
Standard Tip Ring 1 Ring 2 Sleeve Phones using this Standard
OMTP Left Audio Right Audio Microphone Ground old Nokia (and also Lumia starting from the 2nd gen[15]), old Samsung, old Sony Ericsson (2010 and 2011 Xperias), old Wiko (2012-)
CTIA / AHJ Left Audio Right Audio Ground Microphone Apple, HTC, latest Nokia, latest Samsung, latest Sony (2012+), latest Wiko (2013+), most Android phones
