HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)

Digital signal coding system developed to copy-protect the digital contents, such as video, music, etc.
This helps to transmit the digital contents safely by coding the digital contents sent via the DVI or HDMI connector on the output side and decoding them
on the input side.
Any digital contents cannot be reproduced if both of the equipments on the output and input sides are not applicable to HDCP system.
