I got no idea what you mean

RCA = Red and white

3/8 = smaller one

toslink = optical cable and caries all digital signal for your surround setup

if your system used like 5 cables, then they're just regular RCA connectors for those.

If your system used only 1 cable. It's most likely the Toslink or the Coaxial
