When the red cable of the XBox is connected to the blue cable this enables +12V at up to 12 Amps on the yellow cables. The XBox PSU provides a +5V ( Amp) standby voltage on the red cable. When the connector is cut off the cables can be bundled together to provide the required supply voltages. The Xbos PSU output cable has red, yellow blue and black cables internally that supply power to the XBox console via a proprietary connector. I had however decided to keep the 12V power supply and make some use of it as it provides a handy 12 Amps at 12V and 5V at 1 Amp.īelow is the detail of a simple power supply breakout box project i produced using some components i had lying around that themselves had been salvaged from other items and projects. A while ago i decided to salvage what i could from it and then send it for recycling. I refurbished the XBox and got it going but not being a games enthusiast i had no immediate use for it. In early 2017 a friend offered me an old Microsoft XBox and power supply that she was disposing of.
