Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Identify the TOSLINK ports on your devices (usually labeled 'Optical' or 'SPDIF').
- Remove the protective caps from the cable ends.
- Insert one end of the cable into the TOSLINK port of your audio source device (e.g., Blu-ray player, gaming console).
- Insert the other end of the cable into the TOSLINK port of your audio output device (e.g., soundbar, receiver).
- Ensure the connections are secure. Once connected, select the correct audio input on your output device.

Care
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the cable. Avoid using liquids or harsh chemicals.
