What is the Remidy for "Display" Ports ?

[Mike K]

What exactly is the point of a "display" port? I bought a new Lenovo PC and it came with 3 display ports and recently im really wishing they were HDMI ports. Is one better than the other? What is the remedy for interfacing a patch panel? I have not been able to find any keystone with a display port interface BC that port is too large for a keystone and apparently a mini format for that animal has not been developed.

google will help you with why they are used by business...
you dont need an DP keystone...all you need is a displayport to hdmi adapter ...or use an dp to hdmi cable from the pc to the keystone.

a big part of it is to avoid paying hdmi licensing fees.
