The Garrett Z-Lynk 1/4" headphone cable is the short audio lead that connects a Z-Lynk transmitter or receiver to a 1/4" jack. One end is a standard 1/4" plug, the other is a Micro USB connector that seats into the Z-Lynk module. This same cable ships inside the Z-Lynk Wireless Kit, so most detectorists buying it here are replacing one that was lost, chewed up in a pack, or left behind at a hunt site.
What's Included
- Garrett Z-Lynk 1/4" headphone cable (Micro USB to 1/4" plug), part 1627400
Why You'd Need This Cable
- Replace a lost or damaged cable without buying a whole new Z-Lynk transmitter and receiver kit.
- Keep a spare in the bag. It's a small part that does a lot of work, and a hunt ends fast when it goes missing.
- Run your existing 1/4" headphones wirelessly by pairing the cable with a Z-Lynk receiver, no need to buy dedicated wireless headphones.
- Genuine Garrett part built to the same fit and audio spec as the one in the kit.
How It Connects
The Micro USB end plugs into the audio port on the Z-Lynk module. The 1/4" end goes wherever the audio needs to travel:
- On the transmitter: the 1/4" plug goes into your detector's headphone jack, so the transmitter can pick up detector audio and send it out wirelessly.
- On the receiver: the 1/4" plug accepts your wired headphones, so you hear that audio on the other end.
Nothing to configure. Plug it in, pair the transmitter and receiver, and hunt.
One thing worth knowing: Z-Lynk modules use a Micro USB port for audio and a separate USB connection for charging. This is the audio cable, not the charging cable, and the Z-Lynk kit includes both.
