About HDMI
TM
HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. HDMI
transfers digital audio and uncompressed digital video on a
single cable. As a result, audio cables and video cables
don’t need to be connected separately to a device. In
addition, HDMI is compatible with HDCP (High Bandwidth
Digital Content Protection).
