I am seeing if there is such a thing as a cable that converts digital coax to optical. I am trying to hookup my digital cable box to my reciever. My box has a digital coax audio out and I am trying to put it into my reciever's optical audio input. Any suggestions?

There may be (probably is) conversion boxes to do this but no cable I am aware of that has a built in light to electrical signal converter. Click the logo to see my site!
