DP (Display Port) is the competitor of HDMI On some graphics cards and monitors, there are both HDMI and DP ports At present, the DP has been developed to version 1.4, which can transmit 10bit 4K 120Hz video, and can also support 8K 60Hz video DP1.4 is compatible with the USB Type-C, which means we can use the DP1.4 protocol to remotely transmit high definition video while USB3.1 transmitting data Refer to the trend, this is very beneficial for promoting the upgrade of peripheral audio visual and video equipment Meanwhile the DP can also transmit sound synchronously with a single line, so as to achieve the way of monitor sound

The DP port defines two types of connectors, Full size and Mini DP, both connectors are 20pins, but the width of the Mini DP is about half of the Full size Some high end monitors will have a DP output port, such as the BenQsw series products The fastest mode in DisplayPort 2.0 will receive a raw bandwidth of 80 Gbps, which is about 2.5 times that of DisplayPort 1.3/1.4 In addition, DisplayPort 2.0 also introduced a more effective encoding scheme, then improving the effectiveness of encoding The effective bandwidth of the new standard will peak at 77.4 Gbps, three times that of the previous generation
