BAFO announced the development of the next generation digital interface for the PC and CE market, the external DisplayPort™ Cable. There will be a latched cable version as well as a non-latching version DP cable with lengths of 3m and 15m. This cable has the ability to deliver high-definition digital audio and video to the display in packet data format – allowing selective screen area updates and provides power saving features required for notebook applications. One single cable for AV applications thus reduces cost on both the PC side as well as the display side. With the ease of the plug-and-play feature, it is user-friendly for the consumer.
