Optical Cable Splitter?

Hi, I have an Xbox 360 and a PC. I use a headset for both. The headset requires an optical cable, which I plug into the Xbox 360 OR PC. Whenever I want to hear sound through my Xbox, I plug in my optical cable to the Xbox, and whenever I want to hear sound through the PC, I plug it into my motherboard in the back of my PC. My question is, is there some way to "combine" the optical cable so I don't have to keep unplugging it and plugging it in? Sometimes I like to use both at the same time, and switch inputs on my monitor (I use my PC and Xbox 360 on the same monitor). Like while I am waiting for a game to start on my Xbox, I'll switch inputs to my PC and listen to music or something while waiting, and It'd be nice if I didn't have to unplug the optical cable over and over and over again. Thanks for your help
 
Yep, sathyan is right. As a matter of fact I have that one he mentioned for sale at monoprice (the one for $6.34 with the purple selector dial). It worked fine when I used it to switch optical audio sources in my previous home theater setup.
