Toslink And Vga Cable Variations And Differences

Video Graphics Array (VGA) cables and Toslink cables are similar in that both are used to transmit electronic signals. However, this is where the similarities end as there are far more differences than similarities between the two both in function and design.

Some other common names used for VGA cable is the mini D15, RGB and D sub 15. The purpose of these is to give a type of the connector end of the cable, which has three rows of five pins for each one. Using these connector combinations and cables are for transmitting Red Green Blue Horizontal Vertical sync analog video signals and other similar data information. Generally these cable and connectors are implemented in use of connecting a VGA monitor to a computer.

VGA actually was an IBM video display that was introducted in 1987 to run on their computers, but now a VGA cable is a connector for numerous video production hardware to connect with numerous video display hardwares, but only limited to an analog video signal. With the newer technology developing these types of connectors are giving way to connectors like HDMI or High Definition Multimedia Interface. This newer type of cable can transmit both the digital audio and the digital high definition video.

On the other hand, Toslink cables and connectors are used to transmit digital signals only. Toslink is actually a registered trademark of the Toshiba Company created from "TOShiba-LINK." The actual generic name is "EIAJ optical" or Electronic Industries Association of Japan optical cable and connector. Toshiba invented it for the purpose of linking their CD players to their PCM audio stream receivers. While VGA cables carry analog video signals, Toslink cables are fiber optic cables transferring strictly digital signals.

Toslinks optical fibers might be a number of construction types, from thin plastic optical fiber to high quality glass, it is dependent on how it's being used. Most of the time the maximum length for these cables is approximately 15 feet but if it's specifications are necessary it can go up to 33 feet. Many consumers think that the red light that transmits is a laser, but really it's a red LED or light emitting diode that moves the light.
