HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI was developed to meet the explosive demand for high-definition video and audio. With the release of HD content from broadcasters, studios and others, traditional ways to connect consumer electronics devices fall short of delivering the ultimate high-definition viewing and listening experience. To address this issue, leading consumer electronics manufacturers gathered to develop a next-generation digital interface that would meet the requirements for consumer electronics products today and in the future.

In short, the use of HDMI to connect all of your high-definition devices, displays and components will enable you to maximize your home theater system and experience digital content the way it was intended.

Backed by the industry's biggest names, the all-digital HDMI will enable true high-definition, audio/video content for consumers. Hollywood studios, cable and satellite operators, and consumer electronics manufacturers have rallied behind this standard that delivers on the long-awaited promises of HDTV.
