Monitor Connection Ports - JSON

Monitor connection ports are interface standards for connecting devices such as computers and gaming consoles to displays, transmitting video and audio signals. Multiple standards with different use cases and performance characteristics exist, including HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, VGA, and USB-C, each with varying bandwidth, resolution support, refresh rates, and audio transmission capabilities. In recent years, support for high resolution and high refresh rates has advanced, with latest standards such as HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.1 emerging.
