Key specifications

• Cable length: 2 m
• Connector type: TOSLINK (male) to TOSLINK (male)
• Cable diameter (approx.): ø 5 mm
• Color: Black
• Signal type: Digital optical audio (TOSLINK)

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible TOSLINK ports. Align each male TOSLINK connector with the corresponding optical port and insert gently until it seats; avoid forcing the connector. Configure the source device to output audio via its optical output and set the receiving device to the appropriate optical input. Verify audio format compatibility (stereo or multichannel) between devices; some devices may require output format adjustments in settings menus.

Recommendations

Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight kinks to maintain optical fiber integrity. Keep the cable away from heat sources and heavy foot traffic. If audio dropouts occur, check connector seating and device settings; replacing dust caps or cleaning connectors gently can improve contact. For longer runs or professional installations, consider higher-specification optical cables if needed.
