90-Degree USB-C Active Optical Cable for VR Headsets
Designed for VR headset and long-reach USB-C extension programs, the 90-Degree USB-C Active Optical Cable for VR Headsets joins a host to a display or VR device over a lightweight fiber link. Its distinguishing feature is one straight USB-C plug on the host side and one 90-degree right-angle USB-C plug at the headset end, which keeps routing clear of the user’s face. It is aimed at integrators and OEM buyers who need headset-friendly USB-C video and data reach.
Product Overview
Inside the slim cable, an optical engine converts the electrical USB signal to light for the long fiber run and converts it back at the far end. This active optical design keeps the cable light and flexible over long distances while resisting electromagnetic interference that would disrupt copper links. Molded connector housings and direction markings give a clean, installable product for professional cable programs.
The ordered version must be matched to the host, device and charging requirements: a USB-C connector shape alone does not guarantee every USB, DisplayPort Alternate Mode or Power Delivery feature. We keep version-dependent claims conditional until the exact revision and length are confirmed.

Performance & Reliability
The optical path is engineered for high-speed signals over long distances, freeing the installation from the reach and bulk of copper. Actual data rate, bus power and supported device classes depend on the cable version and the connected equipment, so the specification sheet of the ordered revision should drive final claims. Direction markings protect against a reverse-install fault.

FAQ
Q: How far can this active optical USB cable reach?
A: Being fiber-based, it reaches far beyond ordinary copper USB, but the exact maximum distance depends on the ordered revision, data rate and connected devices; confirm the version before publishing a numeric reach.
Q: Do I need to install drivers?
A: No. The cable is plug-and-use for compatible USB hosts and devices; the optical conversion is handled internally.
Q: Is every USB-C / USB feature supported?
A: Not by connector shape alone. The supported USB, DisplayPort Alternate Mode and Power Delivery features depend on the ordered version, which must match your host and device.
