What are some of the other unique capabilities in DisplayPort?
A. DisplayPort has many unique features that set it apart from other display interface standards. DisplayPort is designed specifically for low voltage implementation, has a unique bi-directional, high-data rate Auxiliary channel for sending commands and data between a monitor and a PC, features a micro-packet architecture that is capable of transmitting compressed as well as uncompressed display data, and features powered connectors providing up to 1.5W of power – all features unique to DisplayPort. DisplayPort also includes an optional latch on cable plugs, providing a secure connection to projectors and monitors, a necessary feature missing from HDMI.
