There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
In addition to reviewing this product, I'm also detailing the other options I tested, including price. For anyone else looking to extend their VR system, I hope this helps.
In all cases there was no discernable loss of visual or audio fidelity or dropping of frames. Cable length doesn't introduce lag/latency, so no worries there. But ONLY the active DP connector successfully transmitted the signal to the headset successfully / without snow.
THIS PRODUCT:
USB (5m) ($15.99) - CableCreation Active USB Extension Cable (Long 16.4 FT). Works great, as expected.
OTHER PRODUCTS:
DisplayPort (10m) ($98.99) - ATZEBE Fiber Displayport Cable 30ft, Fiber Optic Displayport 1.4. This cable diameter is remarkably small, but it performed equally to the 5m LINKUP cable with a wider gauge. The connectors / cable heads produced heat as soon as the cable began transmitting data. This may be by design for thermal management; but if it's not by design this could be problematic. Other than that the cable seems to work perfectly.
DisplayPort (5m) ($39.96) - [LINKUP] DisplayPort DP8K DP1.4 Cable (VESA Certified). This cable is kinda thick and very well built. It did the job.
USB (10m) ($35.99) - Cable Matters Active USB Extension Cable Male to Female. This worked to extend the VR range even without being plugged in. Note that a power adaptor is NOT included, which legit sucks. But thankfully the Index worked fine without the power boost.
DP connector (0m) ($19.99) - Cable Matters DisplayPort Repeater (DisplayPort Signal Booster, DisplayPort Amplifier). This successfully extended the signal an extra 10m for my Valve Index headset.
DP connector (0m) ($11.99) - Cable Matters 2-Pack DisplayPort to DisplayPort Coupler. This DID NOT WORK to extend the length of my Index cable.

item 1: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077XBDKBH?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1
not much to talk about since it's just a right Angle USB C Male to Female Adapter but build quality seems good and you are given 3 so if one were to break or stop working you have multiple.
Item 2: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MZIPYPY?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details
thick durable cable. will have stable connection to the quest 2 for link can also be used to charge any devices with USB c.
Item 3: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0179MXKU8?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1
very long extension cable but it does have a coil. this could be easily removed if you stretch it out a bit but if you don't mind the coil then I guess its fine.
charge is not fast enough to charge headset while in play. i started playing with my charge at 98% and I played 1 chapter of Half Life Alyx (30-40 minutes), 1 hour of Into The Radius, and 30 minutes of The walking Dead saints and sinners. all these are the most intense games I own. after I was done playing I was at 84% charge. I'm sure there's something on the users end that can be done to prevent the headset from dying while in use and if I can find out how I will update this review.
other than that I highly recommend this if you are looking for a cheaper alternative to the quest 2 link cable.

I can confirm this works perfectly, and I was up and running within about 2 minutes from opening the pouch to plugging in the DSLR micro B usb cable from my MacBook to the extender cable.
The cable feels robust and pretty thick, the only thing that I am reserving judgement on at the moment is the actual plastic USB extender part - it feels flimsy and that I’d have to be careful with it. Still 5 stars at the moment as it all works fine. I’ll update if it breaks.
