Check The Advantages And Disadvantages Of DP And HDMI

"DP and HDMI which is better"is really a problem that has puzzled me for a long time.I believe many people are interested in this problem like me. By consulting the information, the following comparison is made between the two.

Performance

● The latest version of DP is 1.4, released in March 2016, and the 1.5 version has not been released.

● The latest version of HDMI is 2.1, released in November 2017

Compare their bandwidth and data rate based on the latest versions 1.4 and 2.1 of both:

● DP

The maximum total bandwidth of the primary link is 32.40 Gbps

Maximum total data rate 25.92Gbps

● HDMI

Transmission bandwidth 48.0Gbps

Maximum data rate 42.6Gbps

Audio specifications:

DP's comparative advantage

Advantage 1: AMD multi-screen splicing technology must have DisplayPort interface. AMD supports AMD's latest multi-screen                             splicing display technology in graphics cards. Taking three-screen splicing as an example, AMD's HD5000 series                       graphics card is designed with a DisplayPort interface. The user needs to connect to the display device supporting                       this interface through the DisplayPort data cable, which becomes the main display of the three-screen splicing                       display, and must be the DisplayPort interface directly. Connections cannot be converted in any way. Therefore, for                       display fever users, their demand for liquid crystal displays capable of supporting DisplayPort interfaces is gradually                       increasing.

Advantage 2: higher bandwidth and lower cost. The current HDMI 1.3 interface can support signal transmission of  approximately                       10.2 Gbps bandwidth, while the DisplayPort interface can transmit signals of 10.8 Gbps bandwidth. With its ultra-                      high bandwidth, DisplayPort can easily support ultra-high resolution displays such as 2560×1600.

                      Advantage 3: Free, this is also the most important. The latest DisplayPort interface does not need to pay a certain                       amount of membership fees every year, like the HDMI interface. It does not have to pay for every product that                       contains an HDMI interface like the HDMI interface. It is completely royalty-free in the true sense. Therefore, the                       DisplayPort interface has received strong support from many internationally renowned manufacturers.

HDMI's comparative advantage

Advantage 1: There are many types of devices that support the HDMI interface. HDMI is currently a widely used display interface                       standard. In addition to the interfaces that almost all displays of D-Sub and DVI-D will be equipped with, the HDMI                       interface is often able to be used in current high-end and large-size models. See you. Therefore, in terms of                       displays, the number of products equipped with the HDMI interface is very rich. Of course, in addition to the display,                       in terms of graphics cards, currently a large number of graphics cards can be equipped with HDMI interface. In terms                       of notebook computers, many of the current models have upgraded the display expansion interface from the                       traditional D-Sub interface to the HDMI interface, which makes it easier to transmit picture signals. In addition, the                       current well-known game console platforms use the HDMI interface as the line transmission path.

Advantage 2: The quick and easy way for gamers to connect. Of course, for gamers, the HDMI interface is also their most                       concerned project. Since the current PS3 or Xbox360 and other game consoles use the HDMI interface as the signal                       output, if the display device is equipped with an HDMI interface, it will bring a more convenient connection                       environment for the user. And the HDMI interface's large bandwidth is enough to transmit 1080p resolution video and                       audio signals. Compared to gaming platforms that originally required a very large number of connections, gaming                       platforms that support HDMI transmission require only one line for easy docking.

After reading the advantages and disadvantages between them, we have been able to roughly solve the problem at the beginning. But in daily life, the problem of mutual conversion between PD and HDMI is also plaguing us. Since each person needs to use different devices, there is a need for a conversion line that canconvert DP to HDMI.MSL-force has the high-quality products to solve this demand, which can definitely meet your needs for "DP to HDMI" or “mini DP to HDMI” in daily life.

At the same time, if you find that you need an HDMI to DP conversion cable after replacing the device, for example, many customers will want to keep using the Apple monitor with the DP interface after replacing the laptop. You also can choose to purchase from MSL-force to meet this need, which eliminates the need to consider buying a new monitor.
