video interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player,
and A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television
(DTV). Supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel
digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-
channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements or requirements.
