DisplayPort is a digital display interface standard that can be used to connect a computer to a monitor, HDTV or projector. It is replacing DVI on PC video cards and is able to transmit both video and audio over a single cable. Ideal for both the PC market and A/V market, PC users with a DisplayPort enabled graphics card can connect to a DisplayPort enabled display or adapt the DisplayPort enabled PC to their existing HDMI or DVI enabled display.
