Point-to-Point DisplayPort optical cable, M1-5000 supports single-lane transfer rates as fast as 2.7Gbps across as many as four data pairs for a maximum of 10.8Gbps over a single cable. These features combined with colour depth of 16 bits per colour channel give designers the option of improving image quality in applications that require screen resolution of as much as WQXGA (2560×1600), as well as increasing refresh rates to 120 Hz. The DisplayPort interface also carries embedded clock signals and provides a bidirectional auxiliary channel operating at 1 Mbps to enable link management.
