Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a TosLink and a Mini TosLink connector?
A standard TosLink connector is the full-size square optical audio plug found on most AV receivers and soundbars, while a Mini TosLink is a smaller 3.5mm-sized optical connector used on some laptops, portable DACs, and compact audio devices. This cable bridges the two.
How long is this cable?
This cable is 6 feet (approximately 1.8 meters) long, which provides enough reach for most desktop or entertainment center setups.
Does this cable support surround sound formats like Dolby Digital or DTS?
Yes, optical TosLink cables transmit digital audio signals including Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound, up to the bandwidth limitations of the optical standard (typically up to 5.1 channels).
Is there any signal quality difference between this cable and more expensive optical cables?
Optical cables transmit light-based digital signals, so unlike analog cables, there is no signal degradation due to cable quality as long as the connection is secure and the cable is not damaged. This Monoprice cable delivers the same digital audio quality as higher-priced alternatives.
