Meta Quest 2 USB-C link cable alternative

[macker999]

Hi

I am not sure if this is the correct forum but can anybody recommend an alternative to the official meta link cable? The price seems excessive for what you get https://www.meta.com/ie/quest/accessories/link-cable/ Looking for 5m length and i saw some options that have charging capabilities. Thanks

They're expensive because they're active optical cables. Although there are 'passive' ones of unknown quality for sale on ebay.

The only decent alternatives I know of is the Anker 712 cable, but can't find it on Amazon or Anker's UK website...

Or the much cheaper CableMatters one...
