HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a compact audio/video interface for transferring uncompressed video
data and compr essed/uncompressed digital audio data from a HDMI-compliant device ("the source device") to a com-
patible computer monitor, video projector, digital television, or digital audio device. HDMI is a digital replacement for
existing analog video standards.
DisplayPort
Digital display interface developed by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). T his royalty-free interface
is primarily used to connect a video source to a display device su ch as a computer monitor, though it can also be used
to transmit audio, USB, and other forms of data. VESA designed it to replace VGA, DVI, and FPD-Link. B ackwa rd
compatibility to V G A and DVI by using active adapter dong les enables users to use DisplayPort fitted video sources
without replacing existing display devices.
