What is HDMI?
• HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable without compression.
• “Multimedia interface” is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple
channels of digital audio (5.1 channels).The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the
HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection)
coding feature installed, and supports multi-channel digital audio.
