If your cable box only has a coaxial (RCA) digital output and you want to use the digital audio connection, you will need to purchase a coaxial to optical digital converter. The Monoprice 2947 is less than $20.00.

Do they make a digital audio cable that fits older receivers?

It's not as simple as making a cable that fits. Digital audio cables and digital signals, both coaxial and optical, require a digital input. You need to convert the digital signal to analog to work with older receivers. These are available (Google Digital to Analog Converter or DA Converter). Just about every device that has a digital output will also have an analog stereo output, which will work with your old gear.


Need more information on cable modem?

A cable modem uses digital communications techniques to modulate and demodulate digital signals to and from (for sending and receiving) frequencies appropriate for transmission over the coaxial cable system. Current cable modem standards support speeds up to 400 megabits per second though the service sold is usually slower than that, usually up to around 100 megabits per second.

Can you use coax cable for digital?

Yes. Coaxial cable is the preferred method for carrying the signal. The important factor is the frequency of the signal that is being carried by the cable. Most coaxial cable that you will want for carrying your signal will be RG-6. This will handle signals for radio, television, and satellite receivers. It is not important whether it is an analog or digital program. Some manufacturers use a deceptive advertising technique and will emphasize that their cable is for digital signals. They want you to think that another competing product that does not make a claim to be for a digital signal is not suited for digital. The cable doesn't know the difference between a digital or an analog radio frequency signal. It handles both of them in exactly the same manner. Some important specifications to consider when selecting a coaxial cable are: -Bandwidth (what frequencies can it carry) -Attenuation (how well does it carry the signal without weakening it) -Impedance (proper impedance matching helps to carry the signal - most cable will be 75 ohm and will need to be used for 75 ohm equipment, 50 ohm cable for 50 ohm equipment) Don't use a long cable when a short one will do. A longer cable attenuates (weakens) the signal more. RG-59 can be used for short distances, but RG-6 is a much better choice. RG-59 is not a good choice for HDTV or satellite signals, but it can be used for connecting a VCR to a television.

Speakers are analog devices. There is no cable and connector that will connect a digital audio jack to a speaker without a digital to analog conversion and an amplifier.
