Fibre Optic Cable (For Broadband) = Same As Toslink Optic Cable ?

[napoleon bohlumpar]

so is the Fibre Optic Cable (For Broadband) = Same As Toslink Optic Cable ?

i don't dare to disconnect the fibre optic cable (very thin yellow cable) from the modem since it looks like it'll break since it's so filmsy !

if it breaks, can use a Toslink optical cable or need to buy back the exact same yellow colour cable ?

Different, if you want to replace the cable.
You can get the cable from Challenger, the cable for ONT is Fiber link cable for data.
Toslink is for audio and both these cables the connecting heads are different.

True it will break so try not to bend or curl it too much as once break the entire cable cannot be used.
