Does not seem to work with Oculus Quest 2
I bought this to connect my Oculus Quest 2 to access VR content on my PC using Oculus Link. After 2 days of trying every option I can find, Oculus Link still hangs when launched with this cable and the Oculus cable test will not run with it either. I have another cable that does work, so it seems unlikely that it is down to anything else but this Siwket USB cable. If a solution is found and it starts working I will update the review, if it doesn't I will be returning the cable.

This works but....
Got it working eventually. On your PC go to device manager and select USB 3.0 and 3.1 right click and press power management tab. Turn off power saving for each device. Now plug your Oculus in and bingo! Mine has linked at 2.3 GbpsCable won’t work unless this is turned off.

A high quality, sturdy, Link capable cable that works with original Quest
Cable is a sturdy, braided design that works well with the Oculus Quest (v1) for Oculus Link application.My son did comment though that the cable may prove to be a little too stiff for some use cases. If you are using it for, say, sim racing in a rig it is fine, but if you intend to move about significantly when standing, some users may find the cable a little too stiff and heavy.The cable is of very good quality and works however. It is a matter of personal taste and use case application as to whether the cable is right for you.

Works great with a oculus quest 2
I plugged it into a USB 3.0 on my PC, switched my quest 2 on and my headset asked if i wanted to allow data and enable link, the oculus app launched on it's own and everything worked great.Before i got this cable i was using a Huawei AX3 wifi 6 router via airlink/virtual desktop but was getting micro stutters that was ruining games like beat saber etc, now with the cable everything is smooth.I ran the cable test(go to oculus app,devices,quest 2 and touch,USB test) and got 2.3gbs.The battery still drains while you are using the quest but i get around 3-4 hours instead of the usual 2 when using the headset alone.The cable feels very good quality, braided and a little stiff(which i like as it stays away from my face and body if i bend it outwards a little) and comes with a Velcro cable tie near the port, which i have wrapped around my head strap to help support the cable weight.

Just what my Q2 needed
This is the price I was happy to pay for a Quest 2 link cable which really is fast (USB 3) and gives a proper connection/charge to the headset.The Oculus cable test showed 2.9 Gbps speed, it's absolutely perfect and does make a very much visible difference compared to my first attempt of a cable (which was USB2 only and could only pull 340 Mbps data speed).Ordered today morning, arrived today evening (!), absurdly fast service, thank you!Now fingers crossed it'll last long.

Great cable and DOES work with Oculus Quest 2
Just received this cable and spent ages trying to get Steam VR and Oculus Software to recognise it from my PC. Was about to return it when I realised I had "oculus air link" turned on in settings. Once switched off and headset reset, everything works fine. Games are stutter free!Great quality cable and at a very good price. Best alternative to the official (over priced one).

After a few months work the cable has inconsistent connection
Cable is broken after just 6 months and tbh I really liked it, I've bought 2 now and they've both broken so don't buy this

Works perfectly with Quest 2
A little bit stiff to get it into the Quest itself, but it works flawlessly.The charging cable that came with my quest causes the Oculus app to say that it's plugged into a USB 2 port, with *this* cable it correctly comes up as a USB 3.0 connection.
