1x2 Optical Audio Splitter

This passive Toslink splitter takes a single optical audio source and duplicates the signal to two receiving devices such as a soundbar and an AV receiver. It is intended for home-theatre owners who want to send the same digital audio feed to multiple outputs simultaneously. The unit requires no external power and installs by simply inserting the cables until they click.

Supported Formats and Cable Limits

The splitter passes Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1 and LPCM 2.0 at sampling rates up to 96 kHz. It does not support Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD or uncompressed 7.1-channel PCM. For reliable operation each output Toslink cable must be shorter than 10 ft. Signal strength is divided between the two ports, so very long runs may cause drop-outs on one or both outputs.

Passive Upgrade From Single-Output Devices

This unit replaces a direct one-to-one optical connection when a source has only one Toslink port but two destinations are needed. The jump is worth it when both receiving devices must be active at the same time. It is not for buyers who need format conversion, signal amplification or support for high-resolution multichannel codecs beyond the listed 5.1 and 2.0 standards.

Questions about this item

Will the TOSLINK-SPLITTER-1X2 work with my existing Toslink cables and older AV gear?

Yes, it accepts one male Toslink input and provides two female Toslink outputs, so your current cables plug straight in. Both outputs can run simultaneously with devices such as soundbars, DVD players or home-theatre receivers.

How do I verify the splitter is passing audio correctly after I connect it?

Play a Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1 or PCM 2.0 source; both connected devices should output sound. Ensure each cable clicks fully into the ports and keep cable runs under 10 ft for reliable operation.

What comes in the box and what extra cables do I need to buy?

The package contains the passive 1×2 optical splitter only. You must supply three Toslink cables — one from your source to the splitter input and two from the splitter outputs to your receiving devices.
