This page lists every known video cable for the Xbox 360, along with any additional information if applicable.
 | Phat consoles can use S cables and vice versa (whereas the 360 E can only use its composite cable or HDMI), as the differences are primarily in color (generally, gray versus black) and the omission of TOSLINK. |
