Kabel Digital Audio (Optical / SPDIF / Toslink)

A digital optical connection is a fiber-optic connection that is used for transferring digital audio signals (such as PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS) from a source device, such as CD or DVD player and an AV receiver or Surround Sound Preamp/Processor.

An optical cable (also known as Toslink) transfers an audio signal using a red light beam through plastic fiber optic cable. The signal that travels through the cable must be converted from an electrical to an optical signal in the CD player, then back to an electrical signal in the receiver. Optical cables are not susceptible to RFI or EMI noise because it is light, not electricity that is traveling through the cable. Optical cables are more fragile than a coax cable and cannot be bent too tightly or pinched. The ends of an optical cable use an odd-shaped connector that must be inserted correctly and is not as tightly connected as a coaxial cable with RCA jacks.

Toslink Digital Audio Optical Cables offer high quality digital sound for today's audio and home theater applications. The Toslink Digital Optical Cables use sophisticated mirror polishing techniques to make the clearest end possible resulting in less error and maximum signal transfer.
