Advantages of HDMI
•
Quality HDMI transfers uncompressed digital audio and video for the highest, crispest image quality.
•
Low -cost HDMI provides the quality and functionality of a digital interface while also supporting uncompressed video formats in a
simple,
cost-effective
manner
•
Audio HDMI supports multiple audio formats from standard stereo to multichannel surround sound
•
HDMI combines video and multichannel audio into a single cable, eliminating the cost, complexity, and confusion of multiple cables

USB features
Universal Serial Bus, or USB, was introduced in 1996. It dramatically
simplified
the connection between host computers and peripheral
devices like mice, keyboards, external drivers, and printers.
Let's take a quick look on the USB evolution referencing to the table below.

USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 (SuperSpeed USB)
For years, the USB 2.0 has been
firmly
entrenched as the de facto interface standard in the PC world with about 6 billion devices sold, and
yet the need for more speed grows by ever faster computing hardware and ever greater bandwidth demands. The USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1
finally
has the answer to the consumers' demands with a theoretically 10 times faster than its predecessor. In a nutshell, USB 3.1 Gen 1
features are as follows:
•
Higher transfer rates (up to 5 Gbps)
•
Increased maximum bus power and increased device current draw to better accommodate power-hungry devices
•
New power management features
•
Full-duplex data transfers and support for new transfer types
•
Backward USB 2.0 compatibility
•
New connectors and cable
