Product Description

This Mini-TOSLINK to TOSLINK Adapter adapts a regular TOSLINK Optical connector, for use with a 3.5mm Mini Optical socket.

TOSLINK and other Optical data conduits are easily discounted as pure magic, but they're just as reliant on the quality of the cables as any other medium – if not more so! A dodgy connector can seriously reduce the quality of your sound, and the only way to cut out those weak links is to invest in proper, high-quality connectors. And as luck would have it, they're the only sort you'll find on my site!

Note: This adapter requires a Digital Optical Audio signal, and is designed for 3.5mm Mini-TOSLINK sockets. It does not convert analogue 3.5mm (copper) connections to optical. An audio converter is required for such a connection.

This TOSLINK to 3.5mm Digital Optical Adaptor (or TOSLINK to Mini-TOSLINK if you want to be informal) is just the ticket for joining two fibre optic leads together or simply converting your plugs up or down to fit directly into various components. That's right; it transmits high quality digital audio signals in both directions! Maybe there is a little bit of magic in there after all!

Special Features:

5 Year Cable Chick Warranty!
Small in size, big on quality
Join fibre optic leads easily
Female TOSLINK to male 3.5mm Optical adaptor
Also known as TOSLINK to mini TOSLINK adapter

Product Review by David, NSW - 5th Jan, 2011

I recently purchased some HDMI cables and an adapter for an optical cable to allow an SPDIF connection. I had searched long and hard through retail outlets such as Dick Smith and Jaycar Electrics who kept telling me that these adapters don't exist. I wasted so much time and yet with a click and search of Cable Chick's e-store I found exactly what I needed, ordered it and it was delivered the next day. All purchased products worked perfectly and I now know that I will not bother to traipse around shops looking for what I need when the range of products offered and service from your e-store provided is nothing short of fabulous!! Thanks. I will definitely use your service again

FAQs for: Adapters

Can this adaptor be used with the new Mac Mini's to output multi-channel digital audio? - Posted: 29th April, 2009

Answer: "Yes it certainly can."

Can this product be used with modern tv with opticsl digital audio audio out to connect 3.5mm headphone jack? - Posted: 24th July, 2014

Answer: "No. This product is optical only. There is no electrical source for conversion to analogue. For the conversion you're after, please consider this product: http://www.cablechick.com.au/cables/digital-to-analog-audio-converter-toslink-and-digital-coaxial-to-2rca-stereo-audio.html"

Hi I have a digital audio output on my tv and a set of BT headphones which will require a BT transmitter however the only ones I've found come with a 3.5mm plug. Do you have an adaptor for this? Thanks Anne? - Posted: 25th Sept, 2014

Answer: "The converter you'll need for this application is available here: http://www.cablechick.com.au/cables/digital-to-analog-audio-converter-toslink-and-digital-coaxial-to-2rca-stereo-audio.html - it has the 3.5mm stereo output needed for your Bluetooth transmitter."

Does this adapter connect a standard toslink optics cable to a headphone jack say on a computer? The speakers are powered by a sub (not sure if that changes anything or not)? - Posted: 5th August, 2015

Answer: "This adapter is for optical connections only. If your headphone jack is electrical, this adapter won't operate. However, if your 3.5mm headphone jack is Optical compatible (such as on some models of Macbook) then this adapter will chance the socket to work with full-size TOSLINK cables and equipment."

I have a tv with optical audio out, and I want to plug in into a speaker which only has 3.5mm Jack input. Will this converter work for this in getting my sound from tv to speaker on an optical lead? - Posted: 24th Feb, 2016

Answer: "I'm afraid not. As you are needing to convert from your TV's digital optical output to your speakers analog 3.5mm input, you will need one of our Digital to Analog Audio Converters (product code: SW4002) along with a short 2RCA to 3.5mm Stereo Audio Cables (product code: AVC-C5801).

This will allow you to go from your TV to the converter via a Toslink Optical Cable and then from the converter to your speaker via a 2RCA to 3.5mm Stereo Audio Cable."
