Some people uses a toslink cable.

I have ordered this cable from amazon, it works pretty good but I prefer the coiled cables.

TosLink cable will work fine, and they are cheap. However, they are more fragile than multi-core cables. Multi-core will be able to bend more without breaking internally and thus reducing transmission of the signal.

If you have a link to inexpensive multi core cables please share it.

The 613 fiber sold here is $7.50 usd a meter when I last bought it. They actually sent me a bit more than what I paid for. I made several sets of cables in both 1m and 1.5m lengths.
