The HDMI interface is electrically identical and compatible with the DVI (video only) interface which was used before HDMI came on the market. For example, if a cable box or PC has DVI out but the TV or monitor only has HDMI in, a DVI to HDMI adapter is used to connect the video. However, the sound or audio must be transferred separately using an optional connection, as DVI transfers only video.
