Any ethernet cable that's not a crossover cable will be fine. Still, i would recommend getting a CAT 5e or CAT 6 cable because it has better performance.

you will need an x-box specific cable (about40 bucks) to go box to box. They switched two wires inside for some reason. But if you use a router or hub between the two xboxes you can uses a regular ethernet cable.
