S-Video Cable for X-Box?

I have a new toy (surround sound system to go with my flat screen TV) and now that I have multiple S-Video inputs, I just got S-Video for my PS2? Is there an official Microsoft S-Video cable for X-Box? All I can find are the cheap third party ones.

Yes it's called the XBox Advance AV Pack. Comes with everything you need and can find it at Best Buy, Circuit Cityor just about anywhere else, Target, Walmart, EB, etc.. for 20.00.

Target has one that has one S-video to a Xbox, PS2, and Nintendo connectors. I think it was like $10

I'm looking at this thing online and where's the S-Video? It just looks like a plug for A/V.

If you have a flat-screen TV, why not go all the way and use component video?

It has 3 composite outputs (red, white and yellow) on one side and the s-video and optical out on the other side.

My TV (Sony) doesn't have component inputs.

You will still need to get an S-Video cable to use the Advance AV Pack. Although I think it came with a cable, but I can't remember.
