Oculus link cable

[mushtafa]

I've just ordered myself a Quest 2, but just realised it doesn't come with the PC link cable.

A genuine cable is almost £90!!! Is this just a USB 3.1 type C? Can anyone recommend a known working lead that I can order for delivery before xmas?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Oculus Link Virtual Reality Headset Cable for Quest 2 and Quest – 5 m (16 ft) – PC VR (301-00311-01)= £88.99

Total: £98.89 (includes shipping: £9.90)​

To answer my own cable, Oculus recommend an Anker cable, so have bought that. Thanks

I picked up the Anker for recording plays, works fine but it is chunky.

virtual desktop all the way, i haven't used the long cable since i bought the app.

I did have a quick browse and surprisingly OCUK are the cheapest at the moment.

I've gone for the Anker which should be good enough to get me going over xmas.

I've seen this mentioned a few times. It allows the Quest to connect to the PC via WiFi?

I assumed it's not as good as USB or otherwise no one would buy the cable?

I'll certainly have a look at it though

Its dependant on your router and signal how well it works.

Apparently, hinting but not mentioning competitors is verboten, so you may want to google for link cables, and there may be other sites that come up with the cable at half price.
