DisplayPort is a new digital display interface standard put forth by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). It defines a digital audio/video interconnect intended to be used between computer and display monitors, or computers and home theatre systems. Similar to HDMI, in that it supports both Digital Video and Audio signals, DisplayPort is geared more toward the computer market, where HDMI dominates the Home theatre market. Tripp Lite's DisplayPort cables support a maximum bandwidth of 10.8Gbps, as well as DPCP ( DisplayPort Content Protection) , HDCP, and resolutions up to 1080p.
