40-foot Toslink cable for digital audio

This Monoprice 106735 cable carries S/PDIF optical signals between components such as soundbars, AV receivers, game consoles and televisions. It supports uncompressed two-channel PCM as well as compressed multichannel formats including Dolby 5.1 and 7.1 or DTS. The 40 ft length suits installations where the source and the listener are far apart.

Gold-plated ferrules and moulded strain relief

Each end terminates in a full-sized male Toslink connector with a gold-plated ferrule to resist corrosion. Moulded strain-relief boots protect the junction between the 5.0 mm diameter cable and the connector housing, reducing the risk of fibre damage during routing or repeated connection cycles. The optical link is immune to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference.

40 ft run length for fixed installations

At 40 feet this cable is intended for permanent or semi-permanent runs between equipment racks or across a room. Buyers who need a shorter patch lead for desktop use or a longer run for whole-house distribution should choose a different length.

Questions about this item

What audio formats does the Toslink S/PDIF interface on this cable actually support?

The optical S/PDIF connection carries uncompressed two-channel PCM audio as well as compressed multichannel formats such as DTS and Dolby 5.1 or 7.1.

How much space do the full-sized male Toslink connectors and 5.0 mm cable need behind the port?

Each end uses a full-sized male Toslink plug with a molded strain-relief boot; allow enough depth for the boot plus a gentle bend radius so the 5.0 mm cable does not kink.

What is the correct way to seat the square Toslink plugs so the shutter opens and the link locks?

Align the squared-off plug with the port, insert straight until you feel a click, and remove any protective caps first — forcing it at an angle can damage the internal shutter.
