   TOSLINK is one of the very few consumer fiber optical standards. It transports digital, uncompressed PCM audio over plastic fibers.

   Why not transport IP-over-Toslink instead?
   It's a 1.536 Mbit/s data link after all...

     @manawyrm @n0emis @benjojo you could probably also do softmodem over audio over TOSLINK ;) yate can talk to also devices, so there should be a way ... - I know, it has no useful application, other than layering technologies in a way they were never used before. Sadly T1 is 1.544 Mbps otherwise it would also be cool to do T1 over TOSLINK...
