Cables Direct 4OPT-105 audio cable 5 m TOSLINK Black

TOSLINK or Optical Cable is a fiber optic connection system. Most commonly used with audio equipment (via a "digital optical" socket) where it carries a digital audio stream from devices such as CD DVD Blu-Ray players and modern video game consoles to an AV receiver such as surround sound system that can decode the stream of audio and output it through a set of loudspeakers. Since TOSLINK uses fibre-optic cable it is free from distortion caused by electrical or magnetic interference that an electrical cable would incur. The result is an audio signal that is purer as well as truer to the original recording. Gold plating is used on the connectors for its anti-corrosive properties.
