"Not sure what the reviewer meant when he said "optical signals begin to degrade after 5 feet." I use Multi-mode fiber at work to hundreds of meters in length, and so long as the cable hasn't been stressed, is run and terminated correctly, and is left alone once connected, the losses don't start to get significant until after 500 meters or so. Even then, we can push out to kilometer lengths without data degredati..." Read Full Review »

"I'm an ETA Certified Fiber Optics Technician. If anyone here really thinks these expensive cables help for anything, they are just plain dumb. The three buck ones on the rainforest on-line are just as good as the expensive monster cables. Consumer electronics fiber optics is about as advanced as the fiber optic trees you can get at wallyworld. Why pay more? BTW these have a much lower wavelength than multi mode ..." Read Full Review »

Pros

"Don't understand some of the above reviews. Optical signals degrade after 6 feet, so long runs have special needs that I won't get into. As far as no sound difference, understand that unless you have digital info transfering, you won't hear a difference. My cable is between my pre-amp and my DVD pla …" Read Full Review »

Pros

Best Uses
"Interesting opinions concerning length limit. There really isn't much of a limit unless the opt pwr output is so miniscule as to have an effect on distance...unlikely. Multimode or singlemode is good for tens of kilometers before regeneration is needed. The inherent limitation of multimode is spe …" Read Full Review »

Pros
Cons
Best Uses
"I wish RadioShack made a longer one, but this one just barely makes the run. As with any digital cables, extra high quality (such as Monster cables) only makes a difference, if any at all, on extremely long runs (50ft or more). The cable is well made, works great, and is decently priced. "
