TOSLINK Cable Keeps Pure Digital Audio Signal Between Components
The TOSLINK optical audio connection carries a digital audio stream using a fiber-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-theater 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 fiber-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.

Customer Reviews

Great cable great price
The cable does the job. It is inexpensive and the construction is just as good as any other Toslink cable I bought.

Simply boxed, easy to use, sounds good.
Nothing to complain about with this cable. There's plenty of length, the construction is sturdy, and it conveys good sound. Works great for us. Love that it came simply in a box, without being encased in thick plastic--that's always such a hassle to cut through!

Great cable at a great price avoids tangling too!
The Amazon Basics line of connecting cables is a great concept. Since it's pretty hard to shoplift from Amazon, why have the nightmare packaging and go with common sense plain brown boxes instead?

As other reviewers have said, the cables work great, sound good and you need to remember to remove the rubber protectors on the ends before using.

An additional plus of these cables versus some other TOSLINK products on the market is that they have a thicker than average outer insulation/protection layer which makes them less prone to twist and tangle. Some TOSLINK cables have very thin outer diameters and are extremely flexible. As a result they are easy to knot up or tangle which is something that does not happen with Basics. The basics are flexible enough to route around the back of the home theatre, but not so limp that they tangle.

Anyways, just great, especially for the price.
