Description AudioQuest Forest Optical Digital Audio Cable The AudioQuest Forest Optical Digital Audio Cable is perfect for use with soundbars, subwoofers, and various A/V components. Forest Optical features a polished low-dispersion, high-purity fiber to minimize timing errors, improve bandwidth, and optimize performance. Features Low-Dispersion Fiber Low-Jitter (Digital Timing Errors) Finely Polished Optical Interface 3 meter and above In-Wall Rated PVC Low-Dispersion High-Purity Fiber Conductor The problem with optical fiber transmission is that dispersed light does get through the Toslink cable, but only after it has taken a longer path, like a pool ball bouncing off the side-rails, causing it to arrive later. This delayed part of the signal prevents the computer charged with decoding the information from being decoded properly, or even at all. This reduced bandwidth is a measurable signature of light being dispersed by a fiber. The punch line: The less dispersion in the fiber, the less distortion in the final analog audio signal presented to our ears.
