Visual Graphics Array (VGA) Visual Graphics Array (VGA) allows you to connect to monitors, projectors, and so on. You can connect to a HDMI or DVI port using a VGA port by using the VGA to HDMI or VGA to DVI adapters. Digital Visual Interface (DVI) Digital Visual Interface (DVI) allows you to connect your computer to displays such as flat-panel monitors, projectors, and so on. There are three types of DVI connections: • DVI-D (DVI-Digital) - DVI-D transmits digital video‑signals between the video card and the digital display. This provides fast and high-quality video output. • DVI-A (DVI-Analog) - DVI‑A transmits analog video‑signals to an analog display such as a CRT monitor or an analog LCD monitor. • DVI- I (DVI-Integrated) - DVI-I is an integrated connector that can transmit a digital or an analog signal. This port is more versatile as it can be used in both digital and analog connections. DisplayPort DisplayPort provides digital connection between your computer and display devices such as monitors, projectors, and so on. It supports both video and audio signals. DisplayPort was designed specifically to be used with computer displays. Mini-DisplayPort Mini-DisplayPort is a smaller version of the DisplayPort. NOTE: DisplayPort and Mini-DisplayPort are compatible with each other but the ports and connectors vary in size. If the port sizes are different, use a converter. 62 Visual Graphics Array (VGA)
