Xbox 360 (Original, 2005)

The Xbox 360 uses composite or component video via a proprietary AV connector on the back, supporting up to 1080i resolution on component displays. Two USB ports on front are shared between controller charging and low-speed data (12Mbps); the rear USB ports run at full USB 2.0 (480Mbps) for storage. An original composite cable produces noticeably softer video than component; modern HDMI adapters are recommended for contemporary TV displays. Here's the complete port breakdown.

Microsoft’s second-generation HD gaming console. Early models (Xenon/Falcon) lacked HDMI; Elite model (2007+) added HDMI 1.2a. Supports up to 1080p output via component or HDMI.
