Oculus Quest 2 是一款功能强大的 VR 头戴(powerful VR headset)设备，价格实惠，但它的功能有限，因为它是一款独立设备。好消息是，您可以将它连接到您的 PC 来玩游戏，否则这些游戏只有拥有更强大的 VR 耳机的人才能玩。
如何将 Oculus Quest 2 连接到 PC(How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 to PC)
有两种方法可以将Oculus Quest 2连接到您的 PC。第一个是通过链接电缆，而第二个是通过称为Oculus Air Link的服务。
在你尝试这个之前，你应该注意一些事情。首先，这是严格针对Windows的。虽然有些人已经设法通过使用Hackintosh让它在(Hackintosh)Mac上运行，但这并不常见。您需要功能强大的NVIDIA或AMD GPU才能使其正常工作。
您还至少需要一台 GTX 1060。当然，你的显卡越强大越好。关键是确保您的系统满足兼容性和系统要求。您可以在Oculus Quest 2 网站(Oculus Quest 2 website)上找到这些要求。
最后，您需要将USB-C电缆连接到 PC 上的USB 3.0端口。
如何通过链接电缆连接 Oculus Quest 2(How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 Through a Link Cable)
Oculus Quest 2的主要优势在于它是无线的。通过链接电缆将您连接到 PC，但它也使您能够访问机器的全部处理能力，以便在耳机上使用。如果这是一款不需要大量移动的游戏（或者您有足够长的电缆，可以在连接时自由移动），那么这是一个简单的解决方案。
- 打开Oculus 电脑(Oculus PC)应用程序。如果您还没有，请从Oculus 网站(Oculus website)下载。
- 将兼容的 USB-C 电缆连接到 PC 上的 USB-C 端口 - 最好在前面，以便于访问并充分利用电缆的长度。
- 将该线缆插入Oculus Quest 2头戴设备。当它提示您允许访问数据(Allow access to data)时，选择拒绝。(Deny.)如果您允许访问，则需要从头戴式耳机物理上断开电缆并重新插入。
- 之后，系统会提示您启用 Oculus Link。(Enable Oculus Link.)发生这种情况时，选择启用。(Enable.)
这将打开一个新窗口，让您可以访问您的 PC。从这里，您可以启动SteamVR 游戏(SteamVR games)、Oculus Rift或 PC VR 游戏。仅此而已——只要您的计算机满足最低规格，链接电缆就是一个简单的解决方案。
如何通过 Air Link 连接 Oculus Quest 2(How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 Through Air Link)
第二种选择是通过Air Link以无线方式连接(wireless connection)Oculus Quest 2。这是更可取的选择——它不需要电缆，但如果您的 Wi-Fi 连接无法完成任务，它可能会带来更多延迟和更低的性能。
您将需要一个 Wi-Fi 6 路由器，并且您的 PC 需要通过以太网(Ethernet)电缆连接到您的路由器。与Oculus Link一样，在开始此过程之前，请确保Oculus应用已在您的 PC 上打开。
- 从Oculus设置菜单中，选择Experimental并打开Air Link。
- 出现提示时，选择继续。(Continue.)
- 选择导航栏右侧的快速设置菜单。除了Wi-Fi和Guardian之外，还有Air Link。选择它。
- 将出现可用 PC 的列表。从该列表中选择您的 PC，然后选择配对。(Pair.)
- 如果这是您第一次将 PC 与Air Link配对，则配对代码将出现在您的耳机和 PC 上。取下耳机以确保两个代码匹配，然后在 PC 应用上选择确认。(Confirm)
- 在您的耳机中，选择启动(Launch)以打开 Air Link。
它将打开一个与您使用链接电缆时打开的屏幕相同的屏幕。这是Oculus Link屏幕，可让您访问您的 PC 和您可能无法玩的游戏。
排除连接故障(Troubleshooting Your Connection)
虽然将 Oculus Quest 2 链接到 PC 是一个相当简单的过程，但仍可能出现一些错误。您可以尝试几件事。
如果您尝试通过链接电缆进行连接，但系统未提示您启用Oculus Link，请确保未在 Experimental Features下启用(Features)Air Link。必须关闭Air Link才能使用链路电缆。(Air Link)
如果启动Air Link时没有音频，请尝试重新启动耳机。这是该服务的一个已知问题。如果您在使用Air Link时的性能低于标准，请尝试禁用路由器上的 2.4 GHz频段，以确保它仍然在 5 GHz网络上。
该软件仍被认为是实验性的，但大多数用户只要拥有足够强大的 PC 即可获得良好的效果。它也是唯一一个在Quest 2(Quest 2)上玩一些最好的 VR 游戏的游戏，比如半条命(Half-Life)：Alyx 。如果您想在Quest(Quest)头戴设备上获得最高品质的 VR 体验，您需要将其链接到您的 PC。
How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 to PC
The Oculus Quеst 2 is a powerful VR headset that’s available for an affordable price point, but its capabilities are limited because it’s a standalone device. The good news is that you can connect it to your PC to play games that would otherwise only be available to someone with a more powerful VR headset.
How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 to PC
There are two ways to connect the Oculus Quest 2 to your PC. The first is through a link cable, while the second is through a service known as Oculus Air Link.
A few things you should note before you try this. The first is that this is strictly for Windows. While some people have managed to get this to work on Mac by using a Hackintosh, it’s not common. You’ll need a powerful NVIDIA or AMD GPU to make this work the way it should.
You will also need at least a GTX 1060 at a minimum. Of course, the more powerful your graphics card, the better. The key is ensuring your system meets the compatibility and system requirements. You can find these requirements on the Oculus Quest 2 website.
Finally, you will need a USB-C cable connected to a USB 3.0 port on your PC.
How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 Through a Link Cable
The primary strength of the Oculus Quest 2 is that it’s wireless. Connecting through a link cable tethers you to a PC, but it also enables you to access the full processing capabilities of your machine for use on your headset. If it’s a game that doesn’t require a huge amount of movement (or you have a long enough cable that you can move freely while connected), then it’s an easy solution.
- Open the Oculus PC app. If you don’t already have it, download it from the Oculus website.
- Connect a compatible USB-C cable to a USB-C port on your PC – preferably on the front for easiest access and to capitalize on the length of the cable.
- Plug that cable into your Oculus Quest 2 headset. When it prompts you to Allow access to data, select Deny. If you allow access, you’ll need to physically disconnect the cable from your headset and plug it in again.
- After this, you’ll be prompted to Enable Oculus Link. When this happens, select Enable.
This opens a new window that gives you access to your PC. From here, you can start SteamVR games, Oculus Rift, or PC VR games. That’s all there is to it – the link cable is an easy solution, provided your computer meets the minimum specs.
How to Connect Oculus Quest 2 Through Air Link
The second option is to connect the Oculus Quest 2 with a wireless connection through Air Link. This is the preferable option – it requires no cables, but it can introduce more latency with lower performance if your Wi-Fi connection isn’t up to the task.
You will need a Wi-Fi 6 router, and your PC needs to be connected to your router through an Ethernet cable. Like with the Oculus Link, make sure the Oculus app is open on your PC before you start this process.
- From your Oculus settings menu, select Experimental and toggle Air Link on.
- When prompted, select Continue.
- Select the quick-settings menu on the right-hand side of your navigation bar. Beside Wi-Fi and Guardian will be Air Link. Select it.
- A list of available PCs will appear. Select your PC from that list and then select Pair.
- If this is the first time you have paired your PC with Air Link, a pairing code will appear on your headset and on your PC. Remove your headset to ensure the two codes match, then select Confirm on the PC app.
- Within your headset, select Launch to open Air Link.
It will open a screen identical to the one that opens when you use a link cable. This is the Oculus Link screen, and allows you access to your PC and games you might not be able to play otherwise.
Troubleshooting Your Connection
While linking your Oculus Quest 2 to your PC is a fairly straightforward process, some errors can still occur. There are a few things you can try.
If you’re trying to connect through a link cable, but you aren’t prompted to enable Oculus Link, make sure that Air Link is not enabled under Experimental Features. Air Link must be turned off to use a link cable.
If you have no audio when you launch Air Link, try rebooting your headset. This is a known issue with the service. If your performance when using Air Link is sub-par, try disabling the 2.4 GHz band on your router to ensure it remains on a 5 GHz network.
This software is still considered experimental, but most users have good results as long as they have a powerful enough PC. It’s also the only one to play some of the best VR games like Half-Life: Alyx on the Quest 2. If you want the most high-quality VR experience possible on the Quest headset, you’ll need to link it to your PC.
