DisplayPort is a 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 theater systems. Like HDMI, in that it supports both digital video and digital audio signals, DisplayPort is geared more toward the computer market, where HDMI dominates the home theater market. This Tripp Lite 6 ft.
