The purpose of this unit is to combine signals and maintain their integrity. As if the signals are linked together to form a chain. There is no amplification, just preservation.

I am using this device to connect my soundbar to my LCD and to my DVD player. You will need three optical cables in addition to the box. Good luck.

There should be a port on the TV designed for the optical adapter. The port will be round, like a headphone jack, which is why you need the adapter. Check your TV's manual for information on the optical output connection.

There's a USB, 2 optical ports, a Bluetooth connection, and a 3.5mm output.

the main purpose for this splitter is to add on demand to your receiver which requires an additional device. But you can use it as a splitter if you are going to add another box to your service.

I do not know the answer to the question. I purchased the connector to hook a second monitor to my computer.

It's an optical digital audio cable, if there's more than one type, I'm not aware of the differences.

Optical digital cable is included with the YAS-103 for one method hook-up. If, instead you use RCA or Coaxial hook-up, you supply the cables.

If there's an optical output and you want to connect the sound to your speakers this is exactly what you need.

I'm not entirely sure about the technology. I was confused by the name. I assume the 'optical' refers to fiber optic cables. I used this one to attach an audio bar to my TV. Both devices had connections for this cable. I examined it for compatibility with our old analogue equipment but couldn't see how it would work with those. I returned the sound bar and use this with my Wii now. It does enhance the sound. It also works with my Blu-Ray player.

Not sure what an optical port is but it has 2 ports to connect equipment for cable and streaming etc. For surround sound you may want to have more or plan on an adaptor to add ports.

There is a digital optical audio port, and what looks like a 3.5mm mini stereo plug marked "service only". The manual doesn't say anything about the service only port.

This is for connecting multiple INPUTS to one reciever or one output to multiple receivers. So if your Bose has optical input and your Cable box has optical output this can help. But this product has a lot of issues with reliablilty.
