Giz Explains: DisplayPort Set to Invade PC Monitors Everywhere

As if we needed another display standard, along comes DisplayPort, approved last year and just about to sally forth on graphics cards and monitors everywhere. WTF do we need another standard for, anyway? Bandwidth, that's why. DisplayPort (plug pictured above at left, next to a dual-link DVI connector) can handle a maximum 10.8Gb per second, carries 8 channels of digital audio as well as all that video, and has a bidirectional auxiliary channel that can also handle 1Mb per second. That's a lot of data. It could turn out to be a reliable, fast and easy-to-use bridge between computers and home theater displays. But DisplayPort is not all sweetness and light. More »

Succeeding the 3007WFP, Dell's latest 30-inch deskbuster LCD, the 3008WFP, packs the much-ballyhooed DisplayPort input with its visual-cortex-pleasing 2560x1600 resolution support and 10.8Gbps data rate.

Samsung the First to Develop DisplayPort LCD panel

Samsung has announced that it has developed the world's first LCD panel that uses DisplayPort. The 30-inch LCD, which goes into mass production in the second quarter of 2008, has 2560 x 1600 resolution thanks to the zippiness of the new interface that, at twice the speed of today's interfaces, transmits graphics data at 10.8Gbps.

VESA Approves DisplayPort 1.1 With Digital Content Protection, World Doesn't Give a Damn, Orders More Pancakes

Those crazy videoheads at VESA have approved the final version of DisplayPort 1.1 that was announced at CES '07. And while we thought it was yet another new connector for your computer, monitors, TVs and projectors, different to every other video port out there and obviously designed to confuse everyone, apparently VESA says "it's a new roadmap for display connectivity convergence."
