i really need an optical connection because of some crazy weird coax interference on my zhaolu.. is this even worth it? or is it gonna be super jittery or what?

What a bizarre device, I'd also like to hear if someone has had experience with this.

yeah i can see how it works.. just takes the digital signal from the optical end and converts it to the signal that they use to send the data on the coax..

the only thing is, as you mentioned, is it decent?

I thought that since they use shielded cable it would be able to block your problem. The way the BJC describes the shielding as: providing three layers, two of foil bound together with polyester tape, and one of a dense tinned copper braid, for the best protection both against EMI and RFI. I thought it would block anything.
