Monolithic Fiber Optic Interconnect
Cable Solutions TOS-Series TOSLink Optical Cables are made with low-loss 5mm OD single-strand plastic fiber optic cable, precision terminated with high-quality all-metal connectors with integrated strain-reliefs to reduce stress on the fiber.
With attenuation of only 0.14 dB per meter, these cables actually out-perform many glass fiber cables, both optically and mechanically, making them an ideal choice for many digital audio applications, including Dolby Digital and DTS and CD audio.
Made to the same specs as those used on the respected Vampire Wire TOS Series II, our connectors are installed using a heat-set epoxy method to ensure high performance and long life. The fiber is meticulously polished using super-fine polishing film to ensure a superior equipment interface.
With such low attenuation, our TOS-Series interconnect cables can also handle longer runs, solving a wide range of optical audio hook-up problems.
Optical digital audio cables have an advantage over coaxial cables when it comes to ground preventing loops. Since the signal path is completely free of any electrically conductive materials, ground loops become impossible. Anyone who has experienced the way that ground loops can affect an audio system will appreciate this quality.
We are currently offering connectors in both pewter and blue anodized finishes although we have recently standardized on the pewter color. If you find that you need a longer length than offered here, please check our blue anodized option.
This picture shows a typical 1 meter cable. Please choose the length(s) that you prefer below.

The gold-plated contact surfaces can be seen clearly in this photo. The protective cover shown here protects the highly polished fiber from contamination.

Why Cable Solutions?
- Customer service is our first priority. We do our best to help you find the best solutions for your particular application. We're enthusiasts too, so we know what it's like to wait for cables to hook up new gear. We stock all of the components needed to build these cable assemblies, so we are able to do something that most cable shops do not - we build and ship most orders within one business day.
- It takes outstanding people to produce the kind of workmanship you want for your custom cables, and in all modesty, we have some outstanding people! We'll let you figure out for yourself why paying too little for a cable can turn out to be just as bad as paying too much.
- The importance of high-quality workmanship is second only to the importance of superior service. If you have had enough of outsourced support or worse yet, companies that do not even publish a a functional phone number or email address, we think you will be absolutely delighted that you found our company. We know how important it is to be able to get help when you need it. That's why we have people, right here in Texas, ready to respond to your email or answer your phone call. If English is your language of choice, you will have the simple pleasure of communicating with people whose first language is English. Granted, if you call on the phone, you may detect more than a trace of a Texas accent, but that is to be expected when dealing with a family-owned business run by native Texans. We sincerely hope that you will find our heritage of courtesy, honesty, doing business in an ethical way to be a refreshing experience.
