  • Protects your Xbox 360 console from damage when cables are pulled
  • 23cm breakaway cable separates safely during sudden tugs
  • Works with Rock Band and Guitar Hero wired instruments and dance pads
  • USB connection enables supported peripherals for PC gaming
  • Durable PVC construction with plug-and-play simplicity

Breakaway Cable for Xbox 360

This 23cm breakaway cable connects a Microsoft Xbox 360 wired controller to the console via a USB dongle. It is designed for players who want to protect their console from damage caused by sudden pulls on the controller cord during active play. The plug-and-play adapter requires no drivers and works immediately with supported devices. It suits gamers using wired guitars, drums, or dance pads that rely on a breakaway connection.

USB Dongle Interface Limits

The cable uses a USB connection to link the breakaway point to the console or a PC. This interface limits the total tether length to the 23cm span of the adapter plus the length of the controller's own cable. It does not extend the reach of the original controller wire beyond that combined distance. The USB plug is intended for the Xbox 360 console port or a compatible PC port for dance pads and instruments.

23cm Cable Capacity and Headroom

At 23cm, the cable provides a short safety buffer that disconnects under tension before force reaches the console port. It comfortably handles accidental trips and sharp tugs typical in rhythm or dance games. The PVC construction resists wear from repeated separation and reconnection. It runs out of utility if the controller's own cable is too short for the playing area, as this adapter adds no significant length.
