Product Description

Product Description

The AmazonBasics TOSLINK Digital Audio Optical Cable helps you connect audio components, when clear sound quality is your priority.

AmazonBasics TOSLINK cables feature high-quality,
gold-plated connectors for optimal signal transfer.

TOSLINK Cable Keeps Pure Digital Audio Signal Between Components
The TOSLINK optical audio connection carries a digital audio stream using a fibre-optic cable. This AmazonBasics TOSLINK Cable is perfect for whenever you need to connect audio devices, such as a CD or DVD players to a receiver or preamplifier.

In home-theatre applications, you can use the TOSLINK connection to send a Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack to an audio processor or A/V receiver for surround-sound decoding.

Since TOSLINK uses fibre-optic cable, it is free from distortion caused by electrical or magnetic interferences that an electrical cable would incur. The result is an audio signal that is purer, as well as truer to the original recording.

Quality Construction with Gold-Plated Connectors
This AmazonBasics cable features a durable black PVC outer layer and gold-plated connectors that resist corrosion and offer optimal signal transfer.

The cable also features gold-plated connectors that resist corrosion, whilst offering optimal signal transfer with lower distortion at the point of contact. The end result is picture quality that is faithful to the original.

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
This was my first introduction into the world of optical cables. I used mine to connect my Humax Foxsat to my ageing Sony DAV system (which does not have HDMI). Handling the cable was fine because it is not like having a great chunky scart cable behind the TV. 2 metres was ample length to do the connection and will be fine in most situations except where items are placed along way apart. Cant see why anyone would spend more on a cable.

It is a good fibre cable with a reasonable price. It was packed well and working well. So I am giving five star rating.

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
This cable is a great way for guaranteeing perfect communication from a Sky+, Sky HD or similar device with optical output into a surround sound system with optical input.

It's much better than an electrical wired connection as there optical fibre ensures there is absolutely no loss of information between devices and no possibility of electrical interference.

This optical cable is quite long, which means it is great for connecting devices that are a fair distance apart, but can be coiled up easily if the devices are close together.

This type of connector is symmetrical, so you don't need to worry which way around to plug it in.

Tip: If things don't seem to be working, check that you've switched on optical output from the source. You can see if it's working by looking at the end of the optical cable when it's plugged into the source, as it will appear to glow red if it is working.
