This page will list tested compatible and incompatible DisplayPort, USB 3.0 and Power extension cables.

The power plug (female) / socket (male) is a Coaxial DC power connector. The dimensions for the female plug (PSU side) are 3.5mm Outer Diameter (OD) and approx. 1.1mm Inner Diameter (ID) and for the male socket (HMD side) are 3.6mm OD and 0.9mm ID. A most common 3.5mm/1.35mm plug/socket DOES NOT FIT! Thank you Valve for using such a rare and uncommon size!
