DIGITAL OUTPUT OPTICAL output jack
The digital signal can transmitted in the form of light through an optical
fiber cable and photocoupler. The optical signal transmission features
low signal loss due to cables and complete isolation of the ground loop
so that the very high quality can be reproduced without any digital noise
Connection method:
Connect this jack to aD/A converter, digital sound processor or an
amplifier equipped with a Digital Optical input jack. Remove the caps
from the DIGITAL OUTPUT OPTICAL jack and the Optical input jack of
the connected component and connect the two jacks through an optical
fiber cable.
* Do not bend the optical fiber cable.
* Leave the cap attached when the OPTICAL jack is not used.
