3.5mm Jack to Toslink

Matt14520

Hi guys.

I was wondering wether this would be able to plug into my computer 3.5mm audio jack to output through a toslink cable.

This didn't really look like it would. I just wanted to confirm.

 

Thx for the help, Matt

Those 3.5mm to toslink adapter required a SPDIF port with optical support. You will have to check with your motherboard/laptop/soundcard manual if optical SPDIF is supported. Some SPDIF port is a coaxial only which won't work with those adapter.

I have a Surface Pro 3 that I want to use with this. Is it supported?
