217 Narrow-Aperture Synthetic Fiber Conductors
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.
Precision Polished Fiber Ends
Low-Jitter
- Solid 10% Silver Conductors: Solid conductors help eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter.

Q What is the Audioquest Vodka Optical cable and what is it used for?
It's a digital optical cable engineered for connecting soundbars, subwoofers, and other A/V components, designed to minimize the timing errors and distortion caused by light dispersion in optical transmission.
Q What is the fiber construction, and how does it improve performance?
It uses 217 narrow-aperture, high-purity synthetic fiber conductors with precision-polished ends, reducing light dispersion for a low-jitter, optimized-bandwidth signal.
Q What connectors does it include?
A standard TOSLINK optical connector, with an included 3.5mm mini connector for devices with a mini-optical port.
Q What lengths are available?
0.75m, 1.5m, 3m, 5m, 8m, 12m, or 16m.
Q What is the cable jacket made of?
A blue-on-black nylon braid jacket.
