Any discrepancies can cause a phenomenon known as jitter which can create a "smearing" of the sound. In other words, do the pulses reach their destination in the exact same spacing and timing as they were sent. However, issues such as cable reflectivity, and fiber optic cable type (glass vs plastic) and diameter may have an effect on the timing of the signals. In theory, TOSLINK conveys digital data perfectly, and any cable will do the job. ![]() Due to the information being encoded via light instead of electrons on/in a wire, TOSLINK is immune to RF or EMF interference. ![]() TOSLINK is an older digital standard which uses pulses of light traveling down a fiber optic cable to represent digital ones and zeroes. TOSLINK cables (also called optical digital cables) convey digital signals in the S/PDIF format from computers and audio sources to other pieces of consumer audio equipment.
