It's a cable and it has worked for a day. Reach out to me in a year see if its still working.

Works great! I like the caps that stay attached.

I needed this to connect my Sony Bravia TV to my Yamaha receiver for when I use the smart TV video apps. Works perfectly, took about a minute to plug in (had to move some stuff around). I wasn't expecting the receiver to auto switch to the correct audio input so that was a pleasant surprise. Fantastic price on Monoprice, as expected!

This TOSLINK cable met my need for a greater than 3' cable needed. It allowed me to connect an audio source device to my older receiver with HDMI ARC compatibility issues. While ARC would be ideal, this cable is the band aid solution I am able to use, and a digital TOSLINK is meeting my basic needs. The cable functions as expected.

In addition to the protective caps at each end of the cables, the casing protecting the "optical innards" is much thicker than other cables I have used. I replaced all the other thinner cables (one of which had become worn from apparent constant abrasion) with these more durable cables.

Found myself needing an optical cable and looked no further than Monoprice. They had exactly what I needed and I even ordered more than I needed to have on-hand for some other applications. Cables were packaged carefully, seem to be well-built, and a bright flashlight shown through from one end to the other indicating nothing broken. For the price it is hard to go wrong here.

Works great. Excellent price.

The cable was correct, as ordered, and the quality of the cable, and the optical ends looked well made. And, most importantly, they worked.

Great price, works as it should. Monoprice for president.

Great quality
