Optical digital jack (Toslink)
This type of jack is commonly used for the digital audio inputs and outputs on home A/V components such as receivers, CD players, full-sized MD recording decks, DVD players, and more. Also, some higher-end PC sound cards offer digital input and output using Toslink jacks.
Toslink jacks and connectors usually come with protective caps which need to be removed before connections are made.
