Quest2 included cable for data transfer?

Help
1

Hello!
I’m thinking of buying a Quest2. But I have a question. Can I use the included charge cable for data transfer from pc to the quest? To upload my VR movies? Is the included cable USB-C To USB-C? cause I don’t have a USB-C Port on my computer… Is it recommended that I buy another cable then or will I be fine with the cable in the box?

I found a normal USB to USB-C that came with my Anker power bank. Maybe I can use that? If the one in the box is USB-C → USB-C?

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks alot!

edit<Any colored usb-C cable will work, I even use link with a regular 3a usb-C cable for vr streaming off desktop. It was like $10 the link cable is super over priced unless you need something 20’+ long. the standard black cables are usually charge only.

But is it possible with the included cable to upload the videos to the quest2… Or with my anker cable. So i can use it in the meanwhile while maybe waiting for my link cable.

one it comes with says charging cable, id assume that mean it will only charge. i googled Anker cables, ones im seeing are usb 3.0 (blue end on the usb side) and should work for data. edit< the ones i am seeing with standard powerbank also charge only>

Then i guess my oneplus 3t cable should work cause it can transfer files to my phone from pc.

yes it should, only difference will be speeds at that point. if it’ll work on phone it’ll work on quest.
