DVI interface, or digital video interface. The DVI interface standard was introduced in 1999 by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG), a consortium that includes Silicon Image, Intel, Compaq, IBM, HP, NEC, Fujitsu and other companies.
Currently, there are two common types of DVI interfaces: DVI-Digital (DVI-D) and DVI-Integrated (DVI-I). DVI-D only supports digital signals, while DVI-I supports both digital and analog signals, which means DVI-I offers greater compatibility. DVI signals typically support an effective transmission range of 5-7 meters. DVI signal line extenders are commercially available to extend the transmission range of DVI signals to approximately 30 meters. DVI has a bandwidth of 1.65 Gbps.
