Excellent Charging Cable for VR, Despite Software Limitations
This cable has a great length, which is incredibly useful for staying charged while immersed in gaming, especially with a VR headset like the Quest 3. The included Velcro strap is a thoughtful addition and works really well to help anchor the cable securely to the headset (I personally found it very effective with my Venom Pro strap). It's important to note that while this cable is designed for VR link, the Quest 3's current cable link and software can be quite demanding on VRAM. Because of this, for my specific setup, this cable primarily serves as an excellent charging cable rather than a full-fledged data link. However, this is absolutely no fault of the cable manufacturer, and it performs its core function of keeping the headset charged exceptionally well. If you're looking for a reliable, long charging cable for your VR headset, particularly for sustained gaming sessions, this is a solid choice.

High quality, enables uninterrupted use
This is a great cable. It feels high quality. It's thick but not too heavy. The right-angled port combined with the velcro strap attached to the head band make it secure and avoid risk to your headset's USB port. I use it just for power and it is perfect. I use Immersed with 4 virtual displays at cinema screen size all day for work and it stays fully charged.

Inconsistent Speeds
The listing stats 5Gbps and USB 3.0 which is incorrect. After testing and trouble shooting for over a week. I can confirm this is reported as a USB 2.0 consistently. Whether or not the little hub that you can plug in a USB C into to provide more charging power is downgrading the USB 3.0 to USB 2.0. I dont know. But the speeds shown for me are 365 Mbps consistently. There was 1 time out of the very many times where it shown as a USB 3.0 connection. Which gave me 2.5Gbps speeds. Based on this, this is very inconsistent. Further more - Based on my findings and connecting the dots. Inside the hub is a USB 3.0 hub controller which maxes out at 5 Gbps, when searching this online I found the website with specifications on the hub. But more critically, the description mentions the controller has a USB 2.0 Virtual Device which may be interfering with the connection. This explains why we may be dropping to a USB 2.0 connection most of the time. I cannot be certain that the above is accurate and true as I dont have the exact model. However. The cable 99% of the time shows as a USB 2.0 connection and therefor the speeds drop dramatically. If you are buying this for a long charging cable. Go ahead. If you are buying this to play low fideltity PC VR games, go ahead. However, if you are buying this to play high fidelelty and maxed out graphics PC VR games. Then no, do not buy this cable. Your cable may differ. However, these are my findings and will be returning the cable. *EDIT* Do also note that my motherboard does support these speeds. As I have tested other devices which reported correctly and work without issue. After returning and purchasing a new cable from a different and more reputable brand, the cable works flawlessly. I was recommended this cable by a friend. However they did not understand how the speeds effected performance on the VR headset.

Good for link but the charger doesn't work well
Good product overall, works well as a link cable, tested as a 3GB/S speed on the quest link test. The only problem im having is that the quest keeps saying that there is water in the charger and the charge feature is temporarily disabled which could possibly mean the charger circuit is faulty but i have no issues with tracking or visuals. I have a quest 3 qnd is working well but haven't used it for more than a day, if anything changes ill either edit or delete this review and make a new one.

Didn’t last long
Broke after 4 weeks and reverted to a usb 2.0 connection. Contacted sender through Amazon and got no response. Was working well up until that point. Have purchased one from another Brand that is giving better speeds to start with. Upgraded to 4 stars after contact from Maxonar directly. They didn’t see my original message and have sent me a replacement cable free of charge.

Very nice looking sturdy link cable. Using it on a quest 3. Thanks to the extra usb type c connection the battery charges even when playing games. Very good purchase!

The cable is very good for the Oculus Quest 2 and it works wonders. 0 lag, fast cable and the power injection allows me to use it for way longer (with the 10w power supply). Recommended! 👌

I bought one of these and a DP - DP cable from the largest office supply business in Australia and subsequently had no end of trouble trying to boot my computer. It turned out that, like many manufacturers of DP cables it seems, it was not compliant with VESA standards - pin 20 was wired when it shouldn't be, so there was a voltage conflict between my computer and monitors. This Maxonar VESA certified cable works perfectly. Warning - don't buy DP cables that are not certified; they can fry your GPU.

I had originally bought an HDMI 2.1 cable (INR 417) to connect my laptop to a 4K 60hz monitor. But the monitor had an HDMI 2.0 port, so despite my HDMI 2.1 cable, it could only show an 8-bit colour with choppy refresh rates. It was functional but strained my eyes. So I bought this DisplayPort 1.4 cable (INR 2,799), and everything on my monitor is smooth, at 10-bit colour in 4K. My eyes can relax now.

Simple cable, high quality, no issues. The braided finish adds a nice premium touch. Getting 1440p and 144hz
