Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ High-quality Monoprice 5-meter USB 3.0 A Male to A Female Active Extension Cable, Black - Boost Your USB Connection Range! by Mike Cody

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works for Oculus Link. Thick heavy duty cable. Very flexible and torsion resistant.

I got this for my wife's Oculus Quest to use with Oculus Link. Was very skeptical at first given the whole debate about using a high end USB fiber optic cable versus using a normal low end USB cable or an active extension cable. This cable consistently delivers 1.8 to 2.0 Gbps throughput across multiple VR machines in my home. The cable doesn't charge the device heavily, so depending on what you're playing you can just slow down the battery drain, for example when I'm playing the Google Tilt Brush drawing app, it even charges up to 100 percent VR at a distance of more than 30 ft. total distance. The rest works great! Does as advertised and is very good value for money!

Pros
  • USB 2.0/1.1/1.0 backward compatible.
Cons
  • disappears
