Helpful Hardware Reference Digital Cables & Connections HDMI Jack and Cable HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. It offers a high-quality connection that combines the video and audio signal into a single cable. The HDMI jack uses HDCP content protection to allow you to view HD programming that has been encoded using the HDCP protection system. For the best access to HD programming at the highest available resolution, connect this to an HDTV that supports HDCP technology. DVI (Digital Video Interface) is an older digital connection standard that has been replaced by HDMI and is compatible with HDMI. DVI carries video only.

It uses three separate cables-with connectors colored green, red and blue-one for each component of the HD video signal.
