    Works great for charging and for link/PCVR sessions. Just make sure your mobo or IO ports support the speeds and its being read correctly. Use usbdeview and/or usbTreeView for the usb type its being read as as well as to see the power output.

    With the purchase of the Quest 2 VR headset and since Meta's prices are too high, I would suggest looking at BB's alternatives for accessories for it. They seem to work just as well. Note that this cable is long enough and the headset end in angled for a perfect fit once you've velcroed it to the head strap. These 90° fittings were designed to stop the break off fault of the straight connectors sticking so far out so get one! Using the head set wirelessly is fine but for better, reliable bandwidth, it's always better wired! You don't need to spend $99 to adequately get this job done! I guess if you attached hi-tech instruments to measure nano-gHz, you might find some difference but not enough to justify Meta's inflated prices. Use Insignia and spend the difference on a couple of games/apps/accessories instead.

    This cable does exactly what it should. It links my vr headset to my pc. even tho the quest 2 and 3 have air link, which is nice. being hard wired really lets the quest shine and let the pc do the heavy lifting maximizing visuals and all that.

    Cable to charge meta quest 3

    It is good for the purpose it serves to be able to connect the meta quest 3 to desktop. However, it does not power the headset well due to only being able to plug into the desk top c port from the meta quest 3. However, if you are in a pinch this will definitely get you connected to your desktop. Iniu cable is better if you want longer time with your meta quest 3. You are able to plug into the desktop while being able to plug into the adapter at the same time allowing you to connect your meta quest 3 to the desktop while having it charge ultra fast speed. You can stay connected all day this way.

    This is a true fiber optic cable works just like the one from meta but less money. It can stream and pass through charge very well.

    Does the Job for an Oculus Quest 2

    Definitely does the job for an Oculus Quest 2. I tend to put velcro cable ties on all my cables. In this case, the tie can do double duty. When cable not in use, it ties up the cable all nice and neat. When in use, plug the right angle connector into the Quest 2 and tie the velcro wrap around the Quest 2 head strap to provide strain relief for the connector. Best Buy has velcro cable ties (at least listed on online) as do other places.

    This cable is very light, making it a great choice for a cable that won't weight you down when moving around. Being lower price than the official cable is a huge plus too. The only reason I won't give it a 5 star rating is that it has had an issue where every once in a while it won't connect my headset to my PC until I plug and unplug it a couple times. But the vast majority of the time it works great and has no problem keeping up with my games.
