Hello

How long can I run an optical digital cable before signal degredation?

Where can I buy optical digital cables that are longer than 2m, as I have not found anywhere yet! I am looking for about a 5m length if that is possible????

All help appreciated.

The QED optical cable is available in lengths up to 10m.
 
I used CPC when I lived in the UK. Great company, stock almost everything.

Try this for a higher quality 10m lead

or this for a *BUDGET* :eek: 10m lead...

They also have a connector to connect 2 leads together... Only costs 75p. Or you could by 95p for a gold plated one, which, being expensive would improve the optical conductivity ;)

Sounds a bit dodgy to me though, this last one...
