microphone jack
Voice input socket
A microphone jack is a socket for connecting a microphone to audio equipment—computers, amplifiers, recording devices.
The standard size is 3.5mm for consumer electronics, though professional equipment often uses larger 6.35mm or XLR connections.
Plug your headset into the microphone jack, not the headphone jack.
