Are the A/V cable connections on the new Xbox 360 identical to the original Xbox 360?
The new Xbox 360 has the same A/V connections as the Xbox 360, such as the regular A/V output and the HDMI output. Additionally, the new Xbox 360 has an optical audio port built in, eliminating the need for a connecting dongle as was required for the original Xbox 360. The new Xbox 360 will come with composite cables in the box. Other video output cables are available for purchase separately.
