Optical cable for storage 3510

What kind of cable is used to connect to optical storage 3510.
I know it must be LC/LC. Is it multimodal or singl?
Is there anything else important?
Thanks
Mario

Use multimode fibre for connecting to a 3510. Also depending on the device connecting to the array, you may need to use an SC/LC cable to get the proper connectors.
While the array will "auto negotiate" the connection topology "FC_AL" or "FC_SW", I am a big fan of hard setting the topology on each end of the FC link. This will result in quicker "Link Up" times and fewer device timeouts during link events.

TOSlink optical cable for a Ma Pro? How does it work?

Not sure if this is the place for this question or not, but I am trying to find out more information about the optical audio in/out section of the Mac Pro. On Apple's description page it claims that a regular TOSlink optical cable will work in those slots, but by looking at them, it doesn't seem like it would fit at all. Does a piece in the middle of the optical audio port go inwards? How would you ever be able to get a TOSlink cable to fit it? Anyone have any pictures of an optical cable inserted into a Mac Pro so I can see how it all works?
I know this might seem like a rather absurd question, but I am trying to figure out if I can plug my old stereo surround sound amp into my Mac Pro to use it for audio. Thanks for the help!

There are covers that will swing in out of the way as you press a connector against them. At least this is the case on my Mac Pro..

Correct optical cable for Apple TV 3rd gen

I have now purchased two optical cables that were supposed to work with Apple TV. Neither had the correct end that would fit into the Apple TV. This shouldn't be that hard!! Can someone please point me to a link to the correct cable? Google searches bring up info about connecting, but do not say what cable to get.
thanks!
Joe

Thank you for this. I even described and gave the details of the last cable I bought when I called apple a few moments ago, and he said it was the correct one, and it wasn't. I see on the link you provided that there is an adaptor. It looks like the one I have has one long end (no adaptor) and one small square end. My sound system needs the same square end as the Apple TV takes. So, I just ordered what I think is the correct one.
thanks so much,
Joe

Multi-wire optical cable for 150...200 meter connection

Please suggest multi-wire cable to connect switches located ~150...200 meters away from each other.
It is needed to have at least 8...10 wires inside such type of optical cable.

Cisco doesn't sell optical cabling. Typically people have optical cable installed by a cabling vendor from rack to rack and terminated in patch panels.
The recommended specification these days for most intra-building applications is OM 3 or ideally OM4 50 micron multimode cable. You tell the vendor how many pairs you require and they take care of it for you.
You only then need to procure the 1-2m fiber optic jumpers between the patch panel and the SFPs in your equipment. Again these would be OM3 or 4 50 micron multimode and generally you need LC terminations on both ends. They are commodity items and available from any number of online retailers.

Optical cable for early 08 MacPro

Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement optical drive cable for my early 2008 Mac Pro? My broken cable indicates it's a "593-0377 A". I recently bought a cable that was suppose to be for a Mac Pro but it was too short.

A small clarification if I may:
An 80-wire cable with 40-pin headers. Special wiring in the headers intersperses the (about five) grounds available in the interface so that a ground appears between every active signal on the cable. This keeps it quiet enough to run at the higher speeds required.

Samsung LN52A650 Audio - HDMI or Optical Cable

Hello,
I purchased the Samsung LN52A650 in December and just had it mounted. I keep hearing conflicting opinions in regards to whether or not I need a digital optical cable for the audio or will an hdmi cable suffice? I have a Denon AVR1909 receiver and will be hooking a PS3 to it as well as a 7.2 speaker system. Will my hdmi cable carry the audio that i need? Thanks very much.
Sincerely,
VM The Prince
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Actually, if you are wanting to use your PS3 as a BD player, and want to hear the HD audio codecs contained on BD movies, you have to use HDMI. Toslink won't carry the new codecs.

Optical cable does not work in Apple TV Software v4.2

Hi,
Before I upgraded 4.2, I could hear audio from optical cable and could see video from HDMI.
In my case, my display can play audio with HDMI, but I prefer to using optical cable for home theater system. Therefore I usually set the volume 0 on the display.
However, after the upgrade, the audio did not come from optical cable but only from HDMI as ususal.
I tried the following things but I could not get it better.
- Reboot AppleTV
- Reset AppleTV
- Restore AppleTV
- Reconnect optical cable and HDMI cable
- Restart my audio system.
- Restart my display
Does anyone have similar situation after upgrading 4.2?

I KNOW! haha, I hate how simplified the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi service is.. I hope that Cisco would enable advanced settings in their next firmware upgrade for advanced users..
You are pretty lucky to have the EA2700 model. Cisco provides official support for people who do not like the Smart Wi-Fi service to revert back to the classic Web based setup but ends classic web for EA6500. If you feel like trying it out then give it a go! You can make a back up of all your router settings to your computer so if the classic web setup doesn't work for you then you can always upgrade back to the current "Smart" version and restore all your settings.
Here are the links to that:
This one talks about the benefits of having "Smart" Wi-Fi and tells you that you can downgrade if you don't like it:

This link pretty much tells you how to do it:
http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=25856
UPDATE: I forgot to mention, to back up your current configuration; When you log in to Smart Wi-Fi just click "Troubleshooting", and click the "Diagnostics" Tab and you should see your Backup and Restore settings.

Optical Output for iTouch 4?

Does anyone know if acompany makes an iTouch4 cradle or cable that would accept a digital optical cable for audio? MP3's are digital, doesn't make much sense to use Analog cables from the iTouch to a digital sound system. [email protected]

Just saw this post.
I have the same complaint with iPad output. It's tough to get a straight answer from Apple about the quality of the output from the dock connector.
1. From what I can find, the headphone jack does not give real Line Out quality. It sounds pretty good through good headphones but not to run a good stereo set.
2. I have had difficulty finding out what quiality the "Line Out" signal is from the Apple dock for iPad/iPhone.
3. The HDMI connector from the iPad will support digital audio and should work well according Bang and Olafsen.
4. You can get OPTICAL output from the Airport Express but I'm not sure how to set it up as a hub WITHOUT needing a connection to the full internet. Anyway you can connect an iPad to a correctly set up Airport Express and play iTunes to it and then it feeds your stereo. This is about $100 but a cable connector (if it existed) would be on the order of $50 so this isn't too bad. I don't have the link on how to do it but I did see it. I'll try to post it.
Cheers!

Optical audio cable for iMac?

I need to find an optical audio cable for my 20" intel iMac.
I have not been able to determine what kind of cable that it is that I need to be able to hook up my iMac to my logitech z-5500's. I know that the z-5500's have an optical input on them, but it is a standard size optical input.
Does anyone know what exactly it is that I am looking for?
Any help is appreciated.

I wish Apple would sell a nice white Toslink ->Mini-tos adapter, as all of their products seem to be using the connector. (Or better yet, include it with the computers.)
The cable mentioned above will work fine and is not viciously overpriced like the Monster stuff. Another good quality solution, especially if you already have a regular optical cable, is this adaptor: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=180-968
I use two of those (both with Dayton Audio optical cables from the same seller, though any optical cable will do as there's no real difference between any of them) with my iMac and AirPort Express, and have not had any problems.

My apple TV is connected to a DTV with an HDMI cable and to my Yamaha receiver via optic cable. We rented a movie on Apple TV and.found that the movie played, but we only got audio for music tracks. Voice tracks were silent using both TV and receiver.

My apple TV is connected to a DTV with an HDMI cable and to my Yamaha receiver via optic cable. We rented a movie on Apple TV and.found that the movie played, but we only got audio for music tracks. Voice tracks were silent using both TV and receiver. This only occurred on the rented video and on recorded shows on my cable DVR. previews and other content on Apple TV are fine. Any ideas??

Previews and trailers do not contain 5.1 audio.
If you have recently moved your setup, you may have inadvertently changed some of the settings on your receiver. It certainly sounds as though it is unable to play the 5.1 audio from the Apple TV.

Optical cable? For Sound Blaster Z

Thanks.

Anyone?

Is there a way to have audio only come through the optic cable and video come only through HDMI on Apple TV 3rd Gen?

I currently have a digital optic cable hook up from my Apple TV 3 to my receiver and a HDMI hook up from my Apple TV 3to my flat screen. The audio is coming out of my TV speakers and receiver at the same time. I was wonder if there was a way to switch the audio output from the Apple TV 3 to the digital optic cable and only have video come out of the HDMI? I really only plan on using my receiver for the audio for my Apple TV 3. I know that I can just mute the TV but I wanted to know if there was a way to switch the feed. Thanks

There is an option on my TV but if I do that I lose all my audio on the TV. I have 3 HDMI ports on my Flat Screen. One is for my cable, one is for my PS3 (BTW the PS3 has an option to switch the audio feed so it will come out of the digital optic cable and leave video for the HDMI), and the last one is for my Apple TV 3. If I switch to external speakers I will lose my audio for the cable. I was hoping there was a way to switch the audio feed on the Apple TV 3.

[Athlon64] CPU cant see my other HD I want to use for storage

Ok so I have the msi k8n-neo v with 3000+ athlon 64, Im running win xp 32, I had too much problems with win xp 64 ( wasnt running my games well ) ANYHOO... I have a 120 gig sata WD HD, now I have this other HD WD 40gig but its not SATA. It has windows installed on it already, I just want to use it for extra space maybe a new partition for storage, and I hook it up and my CPU doesnt even see it. Most cases I cant even boot it up. It goes to my logo screen and stays there. IF i hit tab I can go to this other menu, but cant make any choices and it scans my hardware. I even tried running my win XP setup disc but I think its asking for my driver boot disc. Im just afraid to use it cause I dont want my main HD to lose any data or become corrupt where i have to re-install windows AGAIN for the 6th time in the last two months LMAO. Anyway I THINK (prolly wrong) that I have the little slave/master doohicky in the wrong spot. I have tried it in every single spot but I still cant get past my logo screen. the 40 gigger is hooked up to the MOBO from one IDE cable its not a slave on that cable just one cable from the HD to the MOBO in slot two. Slot one is occupied by my dvd rom and my cd rom. Can anyone help me out on this one? Im still kinda new to all this but learned a hell of a lot in the last year!!!!!!!!

...put the SATA drive in and start it up to make sure it's still working...if it's OK, shut it down...
...remove the jumper from the Western Digital 40GB drive...connect it to the far end of an IDE cable...connect the other end to your motherboard...start your machine...
...after Windows boots click Start > right-click My Computer > Manage > highlight Disk Management in the left pane > see if the 40GB is there > it should be > click the drive in the right pane > Action > All Tasks > Format...after Fomat you may have to go back to Action > All Tasks > Mark Partition As Active...
