Works as described. Reasonable tightness on the click. Always a positive.

It just works, like I expect from most StarTech products. Easy to use, good signal, fits my audio setup well, and easy to cable manage.Good quality as always, I hope this company never changes.

This chord great for my speaker. It was easy to hook up to my Samsung tv. It was hard to keep it away from my cat. I had to buy a few but that was okay.

Pro: Works as expected with my audio interfaces. 8 or 4 smux adat channels. Tight solid plug connections. Have had no issues. Affordable.Con: It is incredibly thin and rather stiff and if put besides other audio cables on the floor it’s easy to trip over. Due to it’s material it makes small “cable loops”. Been close to rip it out of the interfaces. Gaffer it to the floor to avoid breaking it.

Looks and feels to be very sturdy. The cable is quite thin, but the connectors are robust and click solidly into the port. Plating anything on an optical cable is a complete scam. Nothing on an optical cable cares about electrical or corrosive issues. I stay totally away from vendors that make a BIG deal about cheap plated metal that they dangle in front of customers, hoping that they will bite. It's all a hoax. As for the diameter of the cable, I don't think there will be any issues for a LONG time.

Needed something longer than the 5ft cable that came with my soundbar.

The cable is VERY thin/slim. However, it appears to be VERY durable. The connectors have no problem staying plugged in. Using for my QLED TV to [super] cheap DAC to my Pioneer A-10AE integrated. So not using for 5.1, only 2.0 sound. MUCH better than the headphone jack to RCA cable I was using. The length is what I wanted, the function is what I wanted, I got what I paid for. Comes with a lifetime warranty.

Great, durable, high-quality cable. Sounds fantastic, cable is sturdy and flexible.But, at first it would not connect to my devices. The cable just fell out. A quick search on the googles, and all kinds of people were having the same issue. Looking very closely, I could now see that there are tiny, soft plastic dust covers protecting the end of the connector.These need to be pulled off. Note the difference between the two pictures below. The one on the left has the round, clear soft plastic in place, and the one on the right does not. The cover is tiny, at the very tip of the connector, and difficult to see. After removing these dust covers, the cables snapped right in securely.

I ordered several toslink cables and this is the only cable which could send 24bit 192khz signals without any problem

Needed a thin but well made optical audio cable for a wall-mounted TV. This StarTech cable is thin and flexible, while still sounding great through the soundbar. Plugs are well made and fit snugly.

Fa il suo lavoro e costa poco. Probabilmente non sara` robustissimo, ma e` sottile. E siccome non credo che nessuno passi il tempo a staccare e riattaccare ogni 2 minuti il cavo, ne` a camminarci sopra, mi sembra che la fragilita` sia un problema poco significativo. E` molto piu` comodo il fatto che sia sottile, cosi` lo puoi fare passare dove altri non passano.

This is the longest Toslink optical cable I've found readily available, and for that, it is amazingly, almost unbelievably economical. It has a very thick, heavy jacket, which should help to protect the optical fiber within. It also has hefty end connectors, and the gold-tone accents on them serve absolutely no useful purpose on an optical cable, but they look do nice and give it an extra air of quality.I've had this cable for about two years. One end of it hangs off an extra input in back of my home theater receiver, and the other end lives under my couch, where it gets shoved around in the dust and occasionally trodden on, and it performs flawlessly without complaint. This allows me to just sit down with my MacBook Pro laptop anytime, pop in the cable, and instantly listen to anything in my music library (or internet radio etc.) in full digital quality. Isn't technology grand!This would also be ideal for hooking up the digital sound output of your HDTV back to your stereo or home theater, or any similar application where you need a longer than usual cable.By the way, for use with the MacBook Pro or other laptop with a similar analog/digital dual-purpose port, you'll want a mini optical adaptor such as , or perhaps if you prefer a right-angle connector.Highly recommended. "Buy without hesitation."
