| The displayPort interface, the successor of DVI, gradually conquers popularity. VESA already prepares the specification of displayPort 1.2. |
The appropriate ports are frequently used in notebooks, video cards, monitors & motherboards.
DisplayPort 1.2 provides reverse compatibility with the previous ports specification : DisplayPort 1.1a. The interface capacity has been increased & now one channel can transfer information with a speed of up to 5.4 Gbit/s, there are 4 channels available now.
DisplayPort 1.2 will ensure a sufficient capacity for a resolution of 3840x2160, with 30 Bit color.
VESA also officially launched the mini-DisplayPort-connector, which is already available on the Apple MacBook Pro notebooks, hopefully this will solve the recent DRM issues on MacBook Pro's.
