3FT Premium S/PDIF (Toslink) Digital Optical Audio Cable
Experience superb sonic clarity and accurate musical reproduction with this Premium S/PDIF (Toslink®) Digital Optical Audio Cable from Monoprice!
The Sony®/Philips® Digital Interface Format (S/PDIF) provides for a Digital Optical Audio signal, commonly referred to as Toslink. Toslink allows for the distribution of uncompressed 2-channel PCM audio or compressed multichannel audio, such as DTS® or Dolby® 5.1 or 7.1. Being an optical signal, Toslink is immune to problems that can plague electrical signals, such as crosstalk, magnetic interference, or radio frequency interference.
This premium cable features a full-sized Toslink connector on each end, with metal connector heads and a metal mesh jacket. The metal jacket helps protect the cable from nicks, cuts, and kinks, which could cause damage to the internal optical fiber.
Features:
Full-sized male Digital Optical Audio (Toslink®) connectors at each end
Heavy duty premium, square metal connector heads
Mesh metal jacket protects cable from nicks, cuts, and kinks
8.0mm outside diameter
Gold plated ferrule resists corrosion and provides maximum protection for the connector tip
Precision polished fiber tips for maximum signal transfer
Important! Because of the shape of the connector heads, this cable will not fit the Xbox 360® S "Slim" models, which are the smaller form-factor models released after June 14, 2010. For the Xbox 360 "Slim", please use one of our standard Toslink cables with molded connectors instead.
