Whats Included
- Meta Link 16' Virtual Reality Headset Cable for PC Gaming on Oculus Quest
Q: What type of connector is used for this cable?
A: This cable uses a USB Type-C connector.
Q: What is the length of this cable?
A: This cable is 16 feet long, giving you ample space to move around.
Q: How fast is the data transfer speed of this cable?
A: The cable is capable of transfering data at speeds up to 5Gbps.
Q: Does this cable charge the headset while in use?
A: Yes, this cable is actively powered and will charge your headset while you play.
Q: What actually comes in the box with the Quest 2? Do I need to buy anything additional?
A: To play stand-alone games on the Quest 2, no, you do not need to purchase anything additional. In the box you get the headset, a charger, two controllers, and a "glasses spacer" to help if you need to wear glasses while using the headset. If you want to play computer-based VR games through the Quest 2, you will need additional software or hardware. You can either purchase software to make this work wirelessly (a Google search will tell you all you need to know on how to do this), or you can buy a USB-C cable to connect the Quest 2 to your computer (of course, your computer must support USB-C for this to work). Oculus has its own USB-C cable called the Link (expensive but good), but Google can also point you to lower-priced options.
A: This wire turns your oculus quest into an oculus Rift S, allowing you to play all PCVR games. It does not increase resolution or hz refresh rate
Q: The specifications say one end is type a the other end type c. Shouldn't the both be type c ?
A: 100% both ends are type c. I ordered this cable a few months back and its exactly like the photos. Specifications listed are wrong.
A: Yes you can, however beware the kind of adapter you get as it may hinder the cable's ability to also charge the headset while plugged in.
