Can you use xbox controller cable on ps4 controller?

In advance: It is clear to me that you can't play xbox controller on ps4. My only question is whether you can use an xbox controller CABLE to a ps4 controller

Yes, of course it works. It just has to be the right adapter

What do you mean by adapter?

I don't know what kind of cable the Xbox controllers use, but the ps4 uses normal micro USB that are also used for charging Android devices.
