It's an optical digital audio cable, if there's more than one type, I'm not aware of the differences.

I used the optical stereo cable and had very good results. That might be a better option.

It connects via an optical cable, which is supplied with the unit, to the "optical output" (also called the "optical digital audio out") port on the TV.

As long as your tv and player have the optical input then these are excellent cables to use. They are very stout and plug in nice and snug into the receptacle. Just make sure you have room in between the back of your equipment and any wall as these will not bend near the coupling of the cable. I use these cables on my sound bar and tv and could not be any happier.

The digital optical cable is used to hear the games sounds through the home theater speakers, if you have the extra speakers. You will need a receiver the accepts the optical cable. The HDMI cable carries the video of the game to the TV and it carries the audio to the TV speakers. It is your choice on whether you want to hear the game through the tv speakers using the HDMI cable or hearing the game through the receiver that powers your sub woofer and surround speakers. For video you will always need the HDMI cable.

One side of the converter uses an RCA pair (usually those cables that have a red and white plug at each end) and the other side of the converter uses either an optical digital cable or a digital coaxial cable. You're going to have to provide more info beyond that.

Fiber Optic cable. You can find one on Amazon, or at Wal-Mart or anywhere else that normally sells TVS and TV accessories.

The Component (RGB) cables carry only the video signal. You need to connect the Audio, either an optical (SPDIF) cable -OR- a stereo L/R cable. The stereo L/R cable is included, but you must supply the optical cable if that is what you wish to use.

Hello Erwin, I'm not sure but as far as I know this cable (RCA) is analog and you are not going to be able to convert the signal from analog to digital signal (optical cable) without a converter. Hopefully this will help you. Later man.

You shouldn't need one unless your home theater system only accepts an optical cable. Either way an optical cable should produce better sound from your home theater system and I would recommend using one.

I doubt you can plug in an optical cable - you may want to use a splitter if you wish to use more auxiliary devices. Since it's a computer multimedia speaker, it wasn't really designed for use with the PS3. What I did was plug an aux cable from the Bose to the monitor/tv that was hooked up to the PS3 via HDMI. Hope this helps!

Optical in and RCA 2 channel out. This is the reason for the unit to convert digital (optical) to analog (RCA 2 channel typically). Works great.
