Fiber Optics/Optical Cable: Does this have a fiber optic cable connection?

Sorry, you're correct. That's what happens when one answers questions in the small hours of the morning with too little sleep. You were looking for "Dolby Digital Theater Sound (DTS) without having to depend on RF or red/white cables for audio." The following specs and references should help: http://www.tivax.com/STB-T9.htm http://www.tivax.com/support.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_CECB_units

Yes, it has two ports one for fiber optic and one for sync cable (Nikonos type)

no - digital optical (fiber) only. there maybe some phono jacks to, but i don't think that is the basis of your question. you can also pair devices via bluetooth.

yes it has an optical hook up on it though I run it through my TV which does not so I use an HDMI cable. But I have used the optical in the with a sound bar.

It's been a while since I bought this unit . . .but I don't think that it did come with a cable. I do like the thing very much, and it has worked great for several years. I actually have two of them in service right now in my home.

This its really a downside! No optical-digital (fiber optic) I will not be getting this, i will keep my Tritton's

Yes it does come with one optical cable. Be prepared to buy a second cable for the second output. My cable television runs off of output one and everything else runs off output two.

No, it comes with a small light that attaches to the other end of the cable connection from the large component. It lights up when the matching end of the cable is attached to the large component.

An HDMI cable is copper based; not fiber optic. To answer the meat of your question, yes, an HDMI cable is able to carry both Video (Picture) and Audio (Sound). While, an optical cable only carries audio.

No it doesn't come with that cable, you need to purchase that cable. In my review I explained all you need. What you need is an hdmi 4.1 cable. Basically its a just an hdmi cable but with the newer technology in it. Its like $6 on amazon. So you need that and an optical cable and then take a look at how I hooked mine up and you're good to go!! Hope that helped. Let me know if any other questions!!

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

I do not see any on the back of mine. So I am going to say no. I'm guessing a optic port would have like a little flap with a red light similar to what my sound card has in my computer. I do not see anything to that effect on the receiver.

Indeed it does with only one cable so if you desire to have multiple optical cables but an extra set.

Mine came with an Ethernet cable. That was probably a year and a half ago but I assume it still does.

I had a similar experience. But in my case it was my own stupidity- I didn't remove the clear plastic cover from the end of the optical cable. For me, that little clear plastic cover was very hard to see so I thought it was part of the actual cable. The odd thing is that cable, with the cover, worked with another device.

Signal source is Antenna. I will try the optical cable. Thanks for the response.

No, but is has a network port. So you can connect it to your internet by using a network cable.
