Monoprice Premium S/PDIF (Toslink) Digital Optical Audio Cable

Monoprice 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.
