If by "5G" you mean 802.11ax on the 5Ghbz band, it's theoretically 9.6 Gbps throughput or so, which is slightly less than displayport's 10Gbps, and that's under ideal conditions. Considering that practical conditions like interference will reduce throughput, it's probably not enough headroom to do reliably without a lot of compression (like oculus link/virtual desktop).

But clearly vive wireless continues to work so it's not really an excuse. Valve just makes too much money on steam to really care about side projects like index it seems.
