Glass Optical cables for WADIA??

I am trying to get a glass optical cable for my Wadia but noticed it has a funny input on the back for the glass/ST inputs that do not match the normal outputs of players etc.

Is there a cable that I need to connect to the Wadia ST input that will also fit a regular optical out? Thanks

I have a Wadia 521 and want to run my optical out of my PC which has one of those plastic square I am guessing Toslink outputs. I wonder if there is an output I can get for my PC Card which would have the ST output? The card is a RME Audio 9632

You'd probably be better off replacing your sound card with one that has AES/EBU out (e.g., Lynx, etc.)and using that to the 521.

Ok, thanks. The RME 9632 has XLR (AES/EBU) outs as an option from its 9-pin port, so maybe that should be my choice.....any other suggestions let me know. I appreciate all the responses.
