Quest Link Cable 16ft/5m, VOKOO Oculus Quest Link Cable, High Speed Data Transfer & Fast Charging USB C Cable Compatible for Oculus Quest Headset and Gaming PC

I bought this to use as a Link cable for my Oculus Quest.It seemed like a good, sturdy cable and it worked perfectly for 10 days.Then it started dropping connection if I moved my head even slightly and reconnecting.Sometimes would not reconnect. I plugged in the cable that I got with the Quest and it worked fine.(Oculus changed the firmware to allow the USB 2 cable supplied with the Quest to work).I hadn't abused the cable in any way so I don't know why it would just stop working like this

I purchased the 5M for my desktop & the 3M for my laptop, both PCs have USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports and suitable graphics cards. I tried both cables on the laptop with no problem (transfer test @ 1.5 Gps), but struggled to get both cables working on my desktop (no detection/freezes and drop outs). I thought the 5M cable had developed a fault, because it appeared to connect & disconnect when touching the connector, but it worked fine when tested again on the laptop?. I enabled the Beta (Public Test Channel) on the desktop, tried again and everything seemed to work fine (even when I disabled the beta and returned to the previous software version). Anyway so far everything appears to be stable and it is great to have access to the Rift titles. The 5M version is a bit chunkier than the 3M (probably to compensate for the extra length) but the extra 2M is needed for some titles (especially if you loose a bit by connecting to the rear of a desktop PC) . I am still not sure why it was difficult to get a stable connection on the desktop, it would not work at all with USB2 or USB 3 gen1 ports (GTX 1080ti & intel 3000 series motherboard chipset?).

For the price and the quality, this cable is great but the pictures suggested it was a different brand but when it arrived it was different (Likely drop shipped.) The cable itself is pretty good, it's a great length which is very useful, I only am getting 2.6 gigabits/s of data transfer from the advertised 5gbs but I didn't have any lag issues when using it but it may be different experience for other users on different pcs.

It's been around 6 months since I bought this cable for my quest 2 and it's finally time to review it.To make it short, I use my VR every day for a few hours so this cable is getting quite some use. It's pretty thick but it doesn't bother me, it's covered in a weird somewhat sticky rubber to which all dust or tiny pieces of rocks will stick, once it's all covered in a tiny layer of dust it's fine.The connector is still in good condition but I fixed it with sticky velcro as seen on the cable, it prevents any pressure or tugging on it. One thing to keep in mind is that it won't necessarily keep your headset charged, it's up to your motherboard to supply enough power through it, my MSI B550 A PRO lets it slowly discharge, but it takes around 8h so still pretty good.Overall pretty good cable, I'm really happy with my purchase and I already recommended it to my friends that own quest 2.

Worked immediately once plugged into my Oculus Quest, didn't even need to fiddle about with the ports to find out which ones work. It also has a really nice angled USB-C bend that allows the cable to drop down from the headset instead of sticking out which makes it much easier to manage.Sidenote: For people who are buying this to use with the Quest, it also comes with a velcro strap already attached to the cable which allows you to strap it to the side of the headset. This means that it's out of the way and doesn't get irritating whilst you are playing. Furthermore it's powerful enough to charge the headset whilst playing so you absolutely never have to worry about it running out in the middle of your session.

This worked great for a week but or so but after it stopped working and connected and unconnected I don’t review it it kept its sturdiness but broke very easily I have recently ordered the baker and I am going to test it

Tested with Oculus Link and got a 1.9Gbps transfer rate on the test. Worked flawlessly on the PTC version of Oculus software. Only issue is that the 3m cable seems a little too short, so go for the 5m if you can.I suspect people are having issues with the USB ports on their PC end rather than the cable itself. Usb 3 requires all 9 contacts to be connected so clean your ports. And it helps to have a decent onboard USB3 controller as well. I use a Asus Rog Maximus IX formula paired with a i7 7700k. The cable worked first time with no issue.

This does charge the Quest2, and allows you to use as a RIFT.After 2 or 3 hours playtime the Quest2 was at 86%, so it doesn't quite charge as quick as the Quest takes power, but it should last all day before you need to take a break.I've never seen the link cable so cannot comment on which is better, but this is not a optical cable.With current games it doesn't matter, this cable is more than capable; but if the games/input ever require faster speeds, I expect that I'd have to upgrade to the link cable.
