The color reproduction range (color gamut) is broader than sRGB, and is highly adaptable to such fields as printing etc. Clock The analog input monitor needs to reproduce a clock of the same frequency as the dot clock of the graphics system in use, when the analog input signal is converted to a digital signal for image display.

A small gamma value produces a low-contrast image, while a large gamma value produces a highcontrast image. HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents 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 DVI terminal on the output side and decoding them on the input side.
