Digital Visual Interface (DVI)

Digital Visual Interface (DVI) carries high-resolution video signals. You
can use DVI to connect your computer to displays such as flat-panel
monitors, LCD TVs, and so on.
There are three types of DVI connections:
• DVI-D (DVI-Digital) – DVI-D is used for direct digital connection
between the video card (source) and the digital display. This provides
fast and high-quality video output.
• DVI- A (DVI-Analog) – DVI-A is used to send video signals to an analog
display like a CRT monitor or analog LCD.
• DVI- I (DVI-Integrated) – DVI-I is an integrated connector that can
send either a digital-to-digital signal or analog-to-analog signal. This
makes it more versatile as it can be used in both analog and digital
environments.
DVI-D
DisplayPort/Mini–DisplayPort
DisplayPort is a digital display interface that defines a royalty-free, digital
audio/video interconnect. DisplayPort allows you to connect a computer
to a display or home-theater system.
Mini-DisplayPort is a smaller version of the DisplayPort. Dell provides
Mini-DisplayPorts in place of DisplayPorts on the Dell Inspiron Mini series
of computers.
NOTE: DisplayPorts and Mini-DisplayPorts vary in size. To connect
devices that support DisplayPort to a Mini-DisplayPort connector, you
must use a Mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort adapter.
