## Description

Explore PC-based VR titles* without losing the freedom to move. Connect your Quest headset to to your gaming PC to access over 1,000 titles in the Meta Quest Rift library. Designed for VR, this ultra-fast, actively powered 16ft (5m) USB Type-C cable lets you enjoy the movement you love, even when you’re connected. A fiber optic core keeps the extra long cable light and flexible, while a 90-degree headset connector arm and velcro strap ensure it stays out out of your way as you explore. Meta Quest packaging will continue to carry the Oculus name and logo during the transition to our new branding.

Review: Better than 3rd party! - It’s just long enough for its intended purpose. The little Velcro strap is really nice, and I do think it’s worth it to buy the non 3rd party version. Plus, works way better than airlink. As long as you aren’t running around in it, you should be completely fine.
Review: BEST LINK CABLE - This is one purchase I was very skeptical of going with for the fact its sold by Meta. I assure you though this cable is these best link cable option. I have had multiple friends have issues with their third party cables not working properly and keep telling them to get this one. The price is a lot more yes but this cable offers really high bandwidth and the ability to charge while playing! This is at least with the Meta Quest 2. As for the new Meta Quest 3 it cannot out charge its consumption which I believe is a problem with that headset itself. The cable has a 90 degree to plug into your headset which makes it nice to run it back behind you when playing. It is a Type C to Type C cable but most pcs have a dedicated type on the back. Love this cable and will continue to use it with my Quest 2. Summary: High Bandwidth+ Very Long Cable+ Charges While Playing(Quest 2)+

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If you only have oculus quest, how can i get the oculus rift games to even try to get them on the quest with this cable? i'm new to oculus! lol.**
A: This cable doesn’t allow you install the games to the Quest for standalone mode.  It allows you to connect the Quest to a PC and play VR games that require higher graphics power on your PC.  It basically turns the Quest into an Oculus Rift. This way you can play both standalone and PC VR games.

**Q: Is this cable proprietary, or does it follow the official usb type-c standards?**
A: The cable follows the USB type-C standards. It's a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C cable. The specs for the cable are available here https://www.oculus.com/quest/accessories/.

**Q: If you use this with the quest, can you play steam vr games?**
A: Yes but you will also have to download Steam VR and Oculus software.

**Q: Can you please explain what is a usb c fiber optic cable? did i miss a technology that charges over fiber?**
A: A fiber optic cable is used because it can supports a 5 Gbps bandwidth over the 16 foot cable length.  An electrical to optical transducer (LED?) converts the electrical signal to an optical signal.  The optical fiber has a very wide bandwidth.  The optical signal is recovered as an electrical signal by using a photodetector and amplifier.  The copper cable which is co-located with the fiber optic cable is used to provide DC power to the Quest 2.  

I bought a cheaper, so called "USB C" cable that was claimed to support 5 Gbps but, as tested with my Meta Quest 2 and a gaming PC, could only support 368 Mbps data transfers.  I am returning the cheaper cable to Amazon.  Let the buyer beware!
