What you're looking for is a 3.5mm headphone plug to Female Lightning connector. Apple does NOT sell such a cable.


I did a search on Amazon and did not find anything which will work for you either. There clearly is not enough demand for such a connector to an old device like an old iPod to make such a connector sell in enough numbers to make it worthwhile to manufacture.
