Optical Cables – Advancing Throughout The Years
Development Of Optical Cables Over The Years
Optical cables, also known as TOSLINK, utilizes optical fibers for consumer audio equipment these days. Digital optical audio ports in various audio setups nowadays and in some electronics use these cables to link audio signals to each other. Because of their very speedy capabilities, they can stream very High Quality audio in different formats, enabling consumers to enjoy exquisite aural experience.
Nowadays, the S/PDIF standard is almost the standard for audio streams. DVD players, gaming consoles and even laptops and computers utilize such sockets. This enables users to stream audio from their digital gadgets to DTS or Dolby Digital decoders. With such, high quality audio streaming can then happen between this gadgets. Over the past years, these cables have evolved mainly with the information and streaming speeds that they can achieve.
When optical cables were introduced in 1983, they were only capable of achieving speeds of 3.1 Mbit per second. However, these days, such cables can now reach bandwidths of up to 125 Mbit per second, obviously showing the fast development of these fiber optics for the past years.
Home theater setups typically use these digital optical audio cables. They may run from the source to the decoder, which then decodes the signals and projects it to the speakers. Such cables were originally limited to only 20-bits at 48KHz. Today, they are developed to support every modern audio format. Dolby Digital and DTS formats are some that they are able to support.
A lot of companies manufacture optical cables these days. Optical fiber cables are then coated with resin, with a plastic jacket around it to further strengthen the cables. These layers are not meant to interfere with the optics, since they only protect them. Typically, fibers are made out of plastic or glass, and are thin and transparent. As light is transmitted from one end to the other, they carry audio signals with them. Each end goes into optical audio ports in the decoder and in audio players or other electronics.
A number of computers today even utilize these audio ports to pair up with high definition video outputs. Speakers with 5.1 or 7.1 capabilities can then be utilized, as well. Home theaters can also support surround sound systems with these cables. Audio cards and other external sound cards easily upgrade computers and laptops, thereby enabling them to project exceptional surround audio.
Good cables are always great investments. With such digital audio cables, you get to enjoy your movies and music in all their glory.
