Connecting S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface)

S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) is a newest audio transfer file format,
which provides impressive audio quality through optical fiber and allows you to
enjoy digital audio instead of analog audio. Through a specific audio cable, you
can connect the S/PDIF connector to other end of the S/PDIF audio module, which
bears S/PDIF digital output. Normally there are two S/PDIF outputs as shown,
one for RCA connector, the most common one used for consumer audio products,
and the other for optical connector with better audio quality. Same as outputs,
you can also connect RCA or optical audio products to input connectors on the
module and have the voice or music come out from your computer. However, you
must have a S/PDIF supported speaker/amplifier/decoder with S/PDIF digital
input/output to connect to the S/PDIF digital input/output to make the most out
of this function.
