Optical Cable vs. Digital Coax?

[Clark2]

For a PCM connection from a streamer to an external DAC, is there any benefit of TOSLINK vs. digital coax?

I assume both carry the same S/PDIF bit stream, but I seem to recall reading that there could be some kind of problems with TOSLINK, bandwidth or excessive jitter maybe? Are there other issues besides available outputs or inputs to consider?
