1 out of 5 stars Worthless   October 10, 2008
L. Andert (Minnesota)
Kills the signal so much, the reciever doesn't even see it. It's about a shade of pink on the other side. I am hooking this up to a PS3 and DVR to a JBL reciever. Everything works well with just the stright through calbes. But no matter what you do with a optical signal. It chokes all the time. Best of to convert to digital coaxal cable or worst off to buy a new reciever.

4 out of 5 stars This will work as a "switch" - under some conditions   September 22, 2008

This works fine as a splitter - it's pretty low tech, basically it's just two fiber optic wires squeezed together in the one end. It can also work as a "switch", but only if the optical output for your device completely shuts off.

E.g. on some players, cable boxes, etc. even when the device is turned off, the optical output is still on - if you look at the end of the cable you'll still see a red light. This is basically just a dead signal and interferes with the light from any other signal if you try to combine them.

If however the optical signal for your devices completely turns off (make sure the end of the cable is dark), you can plug two things into it, and as long as only one turned on at a time, it will work to switch between the sources.

This is a splitter, which means one source to two outputs
If you want to do the reverse then you need a switch
Amaozn has some toslink switches listed. Seems some people get confused between what a splitter does and what a switch does. They do the opposite.
