the item you linked isn't a converter it's a switch ... to allow you to use the same monitor for both your computer and the xbox ...

either way i think you'd need to buy this cable seperately :::

I use a vga cable from ebay, and a switch from newegg (it has a literal switch on the box so no key combo's, and i love it). The quality is great, my monitor doesn't have a native 1080 resolution, however i do get 720 and it looks 100x better than it does on my crt tv.

switch: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817399021

cable: http://cgi.ebay.com/New-VGA-HD-High-Defi...93%3A1|294%3A50

However you will also need a vga female-female connector since the switch has the vga cable directly wired to it (no input, at least for the one i linked).
