INIU DI401 16ft VR Link Cable
The INIU DI401 is a 16ft USB Type C cable built for Meta Oculus Quest 3s, 3, 2, Pro and Pico 4 headsets. It delivers 2.5 Gbps data transfer while a separate USB-C charging port supplies up to 3A power for continuous play. A 90° angled connector and tested flexible joint keep the link secure during active movement. The black cable uses a FLYWEAVE jacket for added durability.
Gamers wanting untethered PC VR
This cable suits players who need a long tether for room-scale VR and want the headset battery maintained around 78% via the dedicated charging port. It is not for users who need a cable to charge phones, tablets or laptops, as the supplier explicitly warns against that use. Buyers without a compatible PD or QC fast adapter will not achieve the stated charging performance.
Check PC port and headset firmware before ordering
Verify your computer has a USB 3.0 Type A port; speeds drop on older ports. Ensure the headset firmware is updated to the latest version to avoid disconnection or liquid-debris alerts. Have a USB-C to USB-C cable and the original wall charger ready for the separate charging port. The package includes a quick-start guide, user manual and 3-year support registration.

Questions about this item
Do I need a USB-A 3.0 port and a PD/QC fast adapter on my PC for the DI401 to deliver 3 A charging and 2.5 Gbit/s data?
Yes — the cable’s USB-A plug requires a USB 3.0 port for full 2.5 Gbit/s throughput, and the separate USB-C charging port needs a PD/QC fast adapter to supply the 3 A rapid charge during play.
Will the 90-degree USB-C connector and sticky buckle on the DI401 stay secure on my Quest 2 or Pico 4 headset?
The 90° USB-C hook is tested to 45 000+ bends and the included sticky buckle locks the plug in place, so the connection remains firm on Quest 2, Quest 3, Quest Pro and Pico 4 headsets.
How can I confirm the SmartProtect 2.0 chip is keeping the headset battery near 78 % while I play?
During use the headset’s battery indicator will hover around 78 %, showing the chip is balancing power and data for safe, sustained charging.
