    I didn't need it as it turns out. When I tried to return it it was 2 weeks later and they I couldn't return it because it was past the time that was allowed to return item. Not a great return policy. He'll make me think twice about buying things from Best buy

    Lock tabs suck

    Purchased the shorter cable first and returned it due to the lock tabs not holding it in place in my JBL sound bar, purchased the longer one so I would have enough cable to tape it in to the sound bar since it also had poorly designed lock tabs. Had to stay with rocketfish brand as it was all that was available at the time at bestbuy.

    This Rocketfish Optical Audio Cable did not work with my Samsung TV. It wouldn't lock into the port. I compared it to an older cable that did fit. The silver sleeve on the Rocketfish cable is too long and leaves the plug in 1/16" short.

    Got it for one of my sound bars didn’t fit. Be sure to check manufacturing specs before you head to store. Employee said it would work with what I wanted to use with didn’t but I don’t think he was trying to be deceiving about. Product isn’t bad just need to make sure you get size fiber optic cable. Check on line

    I have no idea if these are any good as the device they were purchased for did not work. Yet again 50 words were demanded and in the spirit of 50 words I have typed hopefully 50 words are you getting the message yet?

    I should have read the reviews first that say it doesn't fit in all plug-ins and that it doesn't lock in. I returned it for a different brand. No issue with Best Buy returning it
