What is HDMI?
• HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable without compression.
• "Multimedia interface" is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple channels of
digital audio (5.t channels).
The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP
(High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi-channel
digital audio.
>- Each external input source device has a different back panel configuration.
When connecting an external device, match the color of the connection terminal to the cable.
