Quality Optical Cable That Will Fit Behind Power Cable - vaguedetails - 22-Aug-2018
After reading this https://devialetchat.com/Thread-Crackling-sound-from-Phantoms I’ve realized that I should probably be using the optical on one of my Phantom rather than using the dialog port and continuing to wait for a firmware fix whilst tolerating crackling. My current optical cable has a large barrel and can’t be plugged in without blocking the power cable (https://goo.gl/images/W7Ea3M). I’m looking for a new optical cable and thought I would ask the community what they have found that works in the cramped port quarters before I buy something that doesn’t fit.

Maybe this can work? https://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/digital-audio/index.htm
You'd be able to order the exact length you need. If the plug in the picture is too big I'd simply ask them if they can make one that fits. Blue Jeans have probably made optical cables for Phantoms before so they should know.

I use this one from Audioquest https://www.audioquest.com/cables/digital-cables/optical-toslink/forest
Works fine for me, especially because of the Mini Toslink option as it is connected to a Mac mini server.

I use the audioquest diamond and fit perfectly

Awesome. Thanks for sharing your experience. From Forest to Diamond means I can probably safely chose anything from the Audioquest lineup. Cheers.
