Optical splitter

An optical splitter is a Toslink audio splitter that splits one optical digital output to two outputs. These handy little devices allow you to connect multiple audio devices, such as a soundbar and a surround set, to a single output of a digital audio source. Thanks to optical fiber technology, an optical splitter offers unparalleled sound quality. The digital audio signal is transferred without any form of interference or signal loss, so you can enjoy crystal clear sound. An optical splitter is very easy to install and use. You only have to connect the optical audio cables from an audio source to the input of the splitter and then connect the outputs of the splitter to the input of the amplifier, soundbar or surround set. If your TV only has one Toslink output, then an optical splitter is the solution for you.
