JIS-F05 2-Way Toslink Digital jack Audio Splitter splits one fiber optical output into two outputs

Specifications

This splitter provides easy, flexible solutions for distributing an audio signal into two separate digital receiving or recording equipment. The splitter allows two digital optical Toslink plugs to receive the output from one Toslink jack. Ideal for sharing music or digital sound recordings. The clarity and richness of the sound preserved by the splitter will guarantee that your work is transferred undisturbed.

Features:

• 2-Way Option Splitter (Toslink Type) splits one fiber optical output into two outputs
• Used in digital audio devices
• Fiber optic cable presents minimal interference
• Sturdy plastic case withstands possible stress and protects Toslink cables and plugs
• Stylish shape adds decor to any space

TOSLINK (from Toshiba Link) is a standardized optical fiber connection system.Also known generically as an "optical audio cable" or just "optical cable", its most common use is in consumer audio equipment (via a "digital optical" socket), where it carries a digital audio stream from components such as CD and DVD players, DAT recorders, computers, and modern video game consoles, to an AV receiver that can decode two channels of uncompressed lossless PCM audio orcompressed 5.1/7.1 surround sound such as Dolby Digital Plus or DTS-HD High Resolution Audio. Unlike HDMI, TOSLINK does not have the capacity to carry the lossless versions of Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio.

Although TOSLINK supports several different media formats and physical standards, digital audio connections using the rectangular EIAJ/JEITA RC-5720 (also CP-1201 and JIS C5974-1993 F05) connector are by far the most common. The optical signal is a red light with a peak wavelength of 650 nm.Depending on the type of modulated signal being carried, other optical wavelengths may be present.A less common format is a coaxial cable ending in RCA jacks, which is found on some receivers.

Mini-TOSLINK is a standardized optical fiber connector smaller than the standard square TOSLINK connector commonly used in larger consumer audio equipment. The plug is almost the same size and shape as the ubiquitous 3.5 mm stereo minijack. Adapters are available to connect a full-size TOSLINK plug to a mini-TOSLINK socket. There are combined 3.5 mm jack and mini-TOSLINK sockets^{[dead link]} which can accept a 3.5 mm jack or a mini-TOSLINK plug; mini-TOSLINK plugs are made 0.5 mm longer than electrical jack plugs so that the latter are too short to touch and damage the LED of combined connectors. Many notebook computers use these connectors, e.g., for either 3.5 mm electrical headphone output or TOSLINK digital output, and for either electrical microphone and TOSLINK line-in. Mini-TOSLINK jacks are commonly used on laptop computers and portable digital audio equipment.
