DisplayPort Cable Plug to Plug HD Lead Display Port

DisplayPort is a digital display interface standard put forth by the Video Electronics Standards Association. It defines a new royalty-free, digital audio/video interconnect, intended to be used primarily between a computer and its display monitor, or a computer and a home-theatre system.

• 5.184 or 8.64 Gbit/s forward link channel supports high resolution displays with a single cable.

• 8b/10b data transmission (up to 2.7 GHz symbol rate, up to 4 lanes).

• Reduced bandwidth transmission for 15 metre cable (at least 1920x1080p60, 24 bpp).

• Full bandwidth transmission for 2 metre cable.

• Supports color depth of 6, 8, 10, 12 and 16 bits per color component.

• Supports YCbCr color space (ITU-R BT.601-5 and BT.709-4), 4:2:2 chroma subsampling

• Optional Dual-Mode support generates DVI/HDMI signal with a simple line-level conversion dongle.

• 128-bit AES DisplayPort Content Protection (DPCP) support, and support for 40-bit High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) from version 1.1 onwards.

• Supports internal and external connections so that one standard can be used by computer makers reducing costs.

• Open and extensible standard to help with broad adoption.
