Do I use VIVE Streaming Hub or VIVE Business Streaming for pairing with Unity?

[Giantbean]

I'm trying to develop on the Focus 3 and XR Elite, but I don't know what software is needed to connect to Unity with a VIVE USB C cable.
Please advise.

Also Do I need VIVE's OpenXR or can I use Unity's existing OpenXR manager and tools. I understand WAVE may be needed for Passthrough but without that is this Installing VIVE OpenXR PC VR Plugin - Developer Resources needed?

VBS will be better for development.
You will still need to import VIVE OpenXR to the unity for controller profiles. Depends on the platform you would like to deploy your content, https://developer.vive.com/resources/openxr/openxr-mobile/ is needed for contents on XR Elite/Focus 3.

I came here to start a new topic on this but I'll jump on this one instead...

What are the differences between the two?  

So for the Vive XR Elite, to use MR with passthrough, must I use VBS because that has the toggle for MR using passthrough in Settings?

Why doesn't the Vive Streaming Hub have that?

With VBS it appears that I can do everything so why was the streaming hub brought out?

Thanks.

Hi.  Could really do with an answer to this - is there anything online I can read to understand why you would choose one over the other?
