!!! Overview
[{$pagename}]  (MiniDP or mDP) is a miniaturized version of the [DisplayPort] [audio]-[visual|Video] digital interface.


Unlike its Mini-DVI and Micro-DVI predecessors, the [{$pagename}] can drive display devices with resolutions up to 2560×1600 ([WQXGA]) in its DisplayPort 1.1a implementation, and 4096×2160 (4K) in its [DisplayPort] 1.2 implementation. With an adapter, the Mini DisplayPort can drive display devices with [VGA], [DVI], or [HDMI] interfaces.


[{$pagename}]'s [HDCP] extension disables playback of certain [DRM]-[encrypted] content on any display not designed for [{$pagename}] and  includes some content from the iTunes Store which has no such restrictions if played on a Mac without Mini DisplayPort.
