About this item
The Xbox AV connector plugs into the back of the console, and the three colour-coded RCA plugs connect to your television — yellow for video, white for left audio and red for right audio.
A simple, reliable way to keep a spare on hand or replace a lost or damaged cable.
Composite is the universal analogue standard, so this cable works with virtually any television, monitor or recording device that has the familiar yellow, white and red RCA sockets, including older CRT sets and many modern TVs. Just match the colours and you are ready to go, with no adaptors or converters required.
Not sure this is the right cable? This lead fits the original Xbox (classic, 2001) only — it is not compatible with the Xbox 360, Xbox One or Xbox Series. This is our thicker version, with heavy PVC insulation and moulded strain-relief plugs. If you want a lighter, more flexible lead for the same console at a lower price, see the slim-cable original Xbox AV lead.
Still not sure? Use the Cable Finder — pick your console and it shows you the exact lead that fits.
Complete your setup
HDMI-only TV? Use this composite AV lead with our composite AV-to-HDMI converter. It accepts yellow/red/white RCA plugs and needs a separate HDMI cable and suitable 5 V, 1 A USB power source; its USB power lead is included. It does not accept component video.
Missing the mains lead for an original Xbox with a matching figure-8 inlet? See our AU figure-8 mains lead. Match the inlet and console voltage; this is not an external power brick.
