What is an optical cable?
Digital cables, sometimes referred to as digital optical cables, transfer data from one device to another. This data is typically audio and video. With a tendency to cost a little more than other cables types like composite or coaxial, optical cables are more effective at reproducing a quality signal for transfer. They can be used with the following devices:
- CD players:Those wishing to listen to the quality audio from their CD player can connect it to a receiver using optical cables. Optical cables are ideal in reproducing signals with little data loss in the transfer.
- DVD players:When there's a need to transfer audio from one source, such as a DVD player, to another source, like a receiver, digital optical cables are great for making that connection. In some instances, the optical cable may be able to establish a connection directly from a TV if it has an optical port.
- Portable devices:Select portable devices like mini-disc players have the capability to transfer data to another source through optical cables. If you want to play music on such a player through a digital receiver, the two could be connected with the cable.
- Home theatre:Optical cables are commonly used by home theatre systems to connect receivers to subwoofers and more. The sound quality from the connection is higher than it would be using simple speaker wire.
- Game consoles:Newer game consoles connect to televisions using optical cables that transfer the audio and video signal.
What are RCA cables?
You've likely used an RCA cable if you have ever connected a CD player or VCR to your TV. They have three coloured plugs on one end of the cable that connect to corresponding jacks on the back of devices, like projectors or TVs. It gets its name from RCA (Radio Corporation of America), who originally used it in the 1940s.
What can optical to RCA cables and adapters work for?
Optical to RCA cables with adapters allow you to connect the optical cable to a digital audio source, convert it to the regular analogue left/right audio, and connect it to external devices like speakers or amplifiers using standard RCA jacks. Connect your new digital TV's audio output to your stereo system or amplifier for quality converted audio.
