AUDIO VIDEO CABLES
Square Connector TOSLINK SPDIF Digital Optical Audio Cable TV
This is a TOSLINK S/PDIF digital optical audio cable — EMI-immune POF with molded optical connectors for soundbars, DACs, TVs and receivers, eliminating ground loops.
Square Connector TOSLINK SPDIF Digital Optical Audio Cable TV
This TOSLINK cable from JINSHANG TECH connects TVs, game consoles, converters and soundbars over an EMI-immune plastic optical link.
JINSHANG TECH supplies the unit as a production item; fiber diameter, jacketing, connectorization and length can be confirmed against the specification before ordering.
Key Characteristics
- Immune to EMI/RFI from power supplies and switch-mode devices
- Complete electrical isolation eliminates ground loops and mains hum
- Carries S/PDIF stereo, Dolby/DTS multi-channel and PCM audio as light
- No electrical contact between audio components
- Flexible POF lead with precision-molded optical termini
- Standard TOSLINK (and mini-TOSLINK where noted) plug compatibility
Typical Applications
The unit is commonly used for TV, soundbar, AV receiver, game console and DAC connections, and noise-free audio links in home theater and studio setups. The result is a reliable, repeatable build that tolerates the routing, vibration and repeated handling typical of production installations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will it remove background hum? A: Because the link is optically isolated there is no electrical ground between devices, which typically eliminates ground-loop hum.
Q: What audio formats does it pass? A: Standard S/PDIF optical carries stereo PCM and compressed Dolby/DTS bitstreams; it does not carry HDMI-only high-bitrate formats.
Q: What is a TOSLINK optical cable for? A: It carries S/PDIF digital audio (PCM and compressed surround) between devices as light, avoiding the hum and ground loops common with copper audio leads.
Q: Is TOSLINK the same as mini-TOSLINK? A: Mini-TOSLINK uses a smaller 3.5 mm-style connector; check the port on your device — adapters or a dedicated mini lead are used where required.
