Is a SPDIF Cable The Same as Digital Coax?

Well that's my Q. Is a SPDIF cable the same as the digital coax cable you could connect your sub-woofer to your HT receiver for example? They're both 75ohm cables. I'm currently using one I made for my sub-woofer, to feed the SPDIF out from the axe to my audiophile 2496 card. It works, but I'm just trying to be sure it's the same and that using a "real" SPDIF cable wouldn't be better.

Thanks.
