Is there any literature available on fibre for audio? I would like to
gain some understanding of it - light levels both xmit & rx.
I understand that the optical connectors are known as TOS Link -
correct? And are there dongles available to interface between these
fibre connectors and SC/PC or LC connectors?
Are there advantages to be gained in using optical vice coax?
Is Cat5 or Cat6 used in audio? I will be installing structured cabling
for computing - is it worth installing extra runs for audio etc?


Cat 5 is indeed used for audio, it's also used for analogue video (balanced
110 ohm) and works very well. Personally I wouldn't bother with optical, I'd
just use Cat 5 cable, it'll handle everything you need.
