We have two TVs, one is a newer plasma with HDMI connectors, and is downstairs; the other TV is an older older HD 1080i CRT TV, and is upstairs, which naturally, only has component video in. Guess which one the wife gets to use, yep the nice new plasma with HDMI connectors. So to get the best picture for my gaming experience I needed to get component video cables. These were inexpensive and advertised as Microsoft OEM, so I picked them up. (For $400 bucks you would think MS could have included these cables instead of the RCA only cables.)
The seller was great, the price was very competitive, parts were in stock, the order was processed promptly, arrived quickly and in one piece. I was not disappointed; I plugged them in, adjusted the settings on my Xbox, and voila beautiful 1080i HD picture. Bonus is the cable has a fiber optic audio cable port which I use to connect to my surround sound system.
If you need component video for your XBox 360 Slim, these are the right cables.

I got this cable to hook up an Xbox 360S to my father's older TV without HDMI because I was tired of the Component-HDMI converter box causing headaches. It wouldn't work with dedicated streaming devices (i.e. Fire TV Stick or Chromecast), Roku's last component-out capable box is so old it doesn't support most apps (incl. HBO Go), and the last "Smart" blu-ray player I could buy with component-out finally bit the dust. So I busted out my old Xbox 360, hooked it up with this cable, and voila! Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, HBO Go, YouTube, etc. All streaming to an old tube TV.
Not much to say about the cables themselves other than that they work on the Xbox 360 (check that your 360 didn't already come with this cable) and the Xbox 360 Slim. I used these to connect a 360S to an old Toshiba HD CRT display that doesn't have HDMI, and the only issue was getting 1080p to work. I am still not sure if it's a compatibility issue with the TV, or they limit component output to 1080i, but in the Xbox's settings, the highest it would go and still display a picture was 1080i (despite other sources running 1080p). It still looks sharp, and it's a pretty old TV, so I certainly can't complain.
NOTE:
There were some mentions of cables arriving not as pictured; I received the same official MS cables in grey as the image, (the same ones that had come with a previous 360).

BLUF: this cable works.
This cable is not made by Microsoft, the material and build quality are cheap by comparison.
Connections are snug, and easily identifiable.
Does not display 1080p correctly. 1080p casts shadows, and is a bit blurry. 720p is better, but has sharpness faults. 1080i seems to display the best. Not showing 1080p is the reason i knocked 2 stars off.
I use a 2015 model sony bravia 50". I used Microsoft built component cables before with 1080p with no issues, this is how i know these particular cables are at fault.
Hope this helps.

I purchased this item so I would be able to move my Xbox 360 from one room to another without the need to move all of the wires along with it. After I received it, I took it out of the package, saw it looked okay and sat it on the shelf until I was ready to move my Xbox to another room (which was months later, I have been remodeling).
When I did go to hook it up, I saw that it DOES NOT HAVE THE YELLOW CONNECTOR THAT IS IN THE PHOTO, THEREFORE, IT DOES NOT WORK AND IS NOT AS DESCRIBED.
I contacted the seller and they IGNORED me. Now, I find that it's too late to return the item, which is BS.
Do not buy from this seller. If they would sell something not as described and ignore customers emails, then they are not honest. They take your money and run.

From the build of the cable to its output, this is a well-crafted cable.
The clarity is impressive and its colouration is vibrant--tested on a Samsung HDTV.
The cables are really thick even where they separate, and the ends are gold-tipped.
I can scarcely think of any other component cables I've ever seen that look and feel so sturdy.
There is one little thing to be aware of about these though;
there is no SDTV/HDTV switch like there is on most Xbox 360 cables like this.
As far as I can guess, that switch would've activated or deactivated a progressive display.
(Why in the world these cables needed that, I don't know--the Playstation, Wii, and every DVD player ever don't...)
Though this is probably not a problem for most people, this means you NEED an HDTV to use this cable, or perhaps an SDTV capable of progressive displays (if that even exists) because the Xbox 'senses' the cables and automatically turns progressive. Of course half of the fun of these cables are higher resolutions, but sometimes people get these just to read the gosh darn text on modern games--so tiny...!
I just about returned these cables but kept them at the last second when I overheard a relative wanted to get rid of an HDTV--which means I could use these in the future. Right now I'm at college, stuck with an SDTV (but one of the best I've ever seen thankfully--a Sony Trinitron, '96 I think...?). Already having component cables for my Playstation 2, I didn't think this would be a problem, but I think it'll work out anyway.
This cable certainly looks to be an even higher quality than Microsoft's alternative (with the SD/HD switch and composite leads on the side), which is why I picked this set. Ironically, I probably should've picked the other...

Reviewed in Canada on December 16, 2013Verified Purchase
Great cable from Microsoft. Has both component outputs and standard video output (for older TVs). The connector has a switch: HDTV and TV. Make sure to have switch on HDTV and not TV since it will not render properly on component cables.
The order took 12 days to arrive, which was 4 days longer than the initial estimated delivery date. At first I thought the seller took my money and ran, but it turns out the cable was coming from the west coast and got lost on the way. It would have been nice if the package tracking would have been updated more frequently to tell me where it was, especially since it was late.

This component cable may be old fashioned by HD standards but I have never yet seen a HD TV with enough HDMI ports to hook up everything.
Thus sometimes some device must use the component video port, For me it's my Xbox.
HD picture quality is just as good as when using HDMI.

Well if you are unfortunate enough to own an xbox so ancient that it doesn't have HDMI (I did), this cable will significantly improve the quality of video and audio. There is an optical out for audio as well and that's fantastic.
