AudioQuest

Toslink Fiber-Optic Cable + Mini-Adaptor

The AudioQuest Carbon Optical Cable delivers exceptional digital audio performance through cutting-edge fiber technology. Designed with hundreds of low-dispersion, high-purity fibers, Carbon minimizes signal distortion by reducing the scattering and delay of light within the cable—preserving the full clarity and detail of your digital signal.

Ideal for connecting TVs, soundbars, game consoles, DACs, and more via Toslink or 3.5mm Mini Optical, Carbon ensures accurate data transmission with reduced jitter and superior sound reproduction. Whether in a high-end home theater or portable setup, enjoy digital audio the way it was meant to be heard—clean, precise, and immersive.

Please note: this cable comes with a 3.5mm mini Toslink adaptor attached to one end. Please remove this to use a standard Toslink connection at both ends.

DESCRIPTION

19 Narrow-Aperture Synthetic Fiber Conductors
The problem with optical fiber transmission is that dispersed light does get through the Toslink cable, but only after it has taken a longer path, like a pool ball bouncing off the side-rails, causing it to arrive later.

This delayed part of the signal prevents the computer charged with decoding the information from being decoded properly, or even at all. This reduced bandwidth is a measurable signature of light being dispersed by a fiber. The punch line: The less dispersion in the fiber, the less distortion in the final analog audio signal presented to our ears.

Unlike most optical cables, which use a single large fiber to transmit the audio signal and are highly vulnerable to distortion caused by their indirect light dispersion, AudioQuest’s Carbon Optical cable features 19 narrow-aperture fibers of the highest-purity synthetic, creating a cleaner, more direct signal path with significantly reduced dispersion and lower distortion.

Precision Polished Fiber Ends and Low Jitter

AudioQuest Carbon Optical cable uses a non-metallic connection, which provides critical galvanic isolation to eliminate the transmission and pickup of induced radio-frequency noise. Music is presented with a satisfying combination of realistic detail and natural warmth.
