    This is all I have managed to find out, as all info on these optical Thunderbolt cables seems to be under-wraps, and extremely difficult to come-by. Literally zero mainstream sales info is out there generally, for inexplicable reasons; you really have to hunt the info out, it's like they all want to keep them secret or something &/or have shite marketing/pr departments!? They certainly don't sell them to users very well, that's for sure. 

     

    Hope this helps someone anyway. 


     

    Wow! Great information - I appreciate you posting it :)

    Maybe to a HUB for USB or to the high cost apple display but I would have display and have usb on it's own USB channel / ports.
