Optical Cables Wires

Optical Cables and Wires (Fiber Optics)

This category includes optical cables, i.e., fiber optics, which revolutionize data transmission over long distances. Instead of electrical signals, they use light pulses, which provides enormous benefits.

In our offer, you will find primarily:

• Optical audio cables (TOSLINK): The most popular type of optical cable in consumer electronics. Used to transmit digital audio signals (e.g., 5.1/7.1 surround sound) between devices. Commonly used to connect:
  • TVs with soundbars or home theater receivers.
  • Game consoles (PlayStation, Xbox) with audio equipment.
  • Blu-ray players or decoders with receivers.
  A TOSLINK cable (with an S/PDIF connector) is completely immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI), guaranteeing crystal clear sound.
• Fiber optic patch cords (network): Used in professional computer networks (FTTH - fiber to the home, backbone networks). They offer gigantic bandwidth (many gigabits per second) and the ability to transmit data over distances of many kilometers without loss. Available with different connector types (e.g., SC, LC, ST) and in single-mode or multi-mode standards.

Advantages of Optical Cables

• No interference: The light signal is immune to electrical, radio, or magnetic interference.
• High bandwidth: Ability to transmit huge amounts of data (for networks).
• Long range: Minimal signal loss over long distances (mainly applies to network fiber optics).
• Galvanic isolation: No electrical connection between devices eliminates ground loop problems and potential equipment damage.

Ensure the best digital audio quality. Choose a high-quality TOSLINK (S/PDIF) optical cable from Actii.pl to connect your TV to your soundbar.
