Description

The Xbox 360 Slim Composite AV Cable was included with most Xbox 360 S consoles except for ‘Pro’ and ‘Elite’ Kits. It provides a composite stereo AV connector for purchasers using an old display that lacks a HDMI input.

The original Xbox 360 did not initially include a HDMI output. The multi AV output supported this cable and HD analogue output by component/D-terminal and VGA. HDMI was added in early revisions of the Xbox 360, approximately a year after the launch. However, these composite video cables remained standard throughout the Xbox 360 life. Only the very late Xbox 360 E model dropped the multi AV output in lieu of a camcorder style phone jack to stereo AV cable, which continued to act as a fallback for the then ubiquitous HDMI, dropping support for other analogue HD outputs the multi AV port supported (component and VGA).
