About this deal

As you may have already experienced, a key benefit of a multi-monitor setup is increased productivity and seamless multi-tasking. And when you aren’t feeling so productive, it offers a wonderfully immersive gaming experience as discussed here in a previous blog post. As a designer, your shouldn't go for anything less than a 4k monitor - one that offers the best possible performance. Ideally, graphic design monitors should include as many types of ports as possible. High-end monitors tend to include DisplayPorts to handle high resolution, color saturation, and internal calibration, so DisplayPort is currently the most useful connector for creative professionals. Photographers The market share of DisplayPort is 957 Million units. This is the market share of DisplayPort for the year 2020. The market share of DisplayPort is expected to shoot to 4.7 Billion Units in the next five years. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of the market share of DisplayPort is 25.6%.

All versions of the DisplayPort can be connected to multiple 4k monitors while HDMI 1.4 and HDMI 2.0 can not.The DisplayPort (DP) input contains twenty pins. The DisplayPort exists in two sizes; the standard sized-DisplayPort and the smaller DisplayPort. Apple develops the smaller-sized DisplayPort known as Mini DisplayPort as it's similar to a Thunderbolt. The 20-pin interface is fitted to the L-shaped connector. This particular look distinguishes the DisplayPort from other technologies like HDMI, USB type C, and USB type A. Professionals look at the tiniest details to improve quality of their work and increase productivity: Graphic Designers USB-C has an effective bandwidth of 10Gbps while the DisplayPort has an effective bandwidth of 77.4Gbps. Daisy chaining” is a term that describes the ability to connect a series of devices together using a single connection between each two devices. The new DisplayPort v1.2 daisy chainable displays have both a DisplayPort input and a DisplayPort output. The DisplayPort output connects to the next downstream display. This cabling arrangement, with one DisplayPort cable between each set of monitors, provides a less cluttered system configuration. Because of its 3:1 compression ratio DisplayPort offers a superior bandwidth of 32.4 Gbps which will drastically reduce screen tearing. You’ll experience a loss-less screen quality that makes complex tasks a breeze. In terms of resolution and refresh rate, there isn’t enough of a difference between DisplayPort and HDMI to business people to use one or the other. But in terms of physical functionality, the ability to chain monitors with a DisplayPort could make a significant impact on one's workflow.

Improve multitasking and increase productivity by configuring the hub to work as a splitter with the same video image on each display, extending a video image to multiple displays, or expanding a video image by joining multiple monitors together as one display. The hub is ideal for a multiple display desk setup and the light-weight, small form factor, also makes it easy to carry while traveling or just on the go

The system has detected a link failure and cannot set the requested resolution and refresh rate. Your display might not support the requested resolution or there may be an issue with the cable connecting the display to your computer." USB-C can be used in computer and smartphone connections, while a DisplayPort can not connect a smartphone. But if you just want a splitter that's reported to work for mirroring your video, with a high probability of working, keep reading. This DisplayPort 1.2 to Dual DisplayPort MST Hub allows a DisplayPort enabled device to connect to two DisplayPort enabled displays for video mirroring, video extension, or viewing a single video image across two displays. The hub is perfect for graphic design, spreadsheet analysis, and digital signage applications. DisplayPort provides the best alternative to computer-to-monitor connection compared to VGA. For instance, DisplayPort version 1.3 supports an 8K revolution with a 60 Hz refresh rate and a 4K revolution with a refresh rate of 120 Hz (see also top 120Hz monitors).

The above are just examples – it is not required that all of the screens use the same resolution. For example, one 2560 x 1600 monitor could be used with two 1920 x 1080 monitors. And while all monitors in the middle of the daisy chain need to be DisplayPort v1.2 daisy-chainable (since they need the DisplayPort output), the last monitor can be an older DP 1.1 monitor (which only has a DisplayPort input).VESA developed DisplayPort to enhance several displays using a single cable connection. VESA also came up with the DisplayPort MultiMode (DP++). Using an appropriate adapter, this model can generate HDMI, VGA, or DVI signals from the DisplayPort signal. The DisplayPort can accommodate multiple adapters that enable the connection of many display standards ( see all connection types). Also, DisplayPort cables transmit more signals at the same time which is an advantage if you need to connect multiple monitors for your work. What are the Benefits of a Computer Monitor with DisplayPort? Another development that evolved DisplayPort technology in 2014 is introducing the High Bit Rate 3 (HBR3) transmission mode. The HBR3 transmission mode allowed DisplayPort 1.3 to transmit a 5120×2880 display at a refresh rate of up to 60hz.
