Mini DisplayPort and DisplayPort are not identical. While the Mini DisplayPort was designed to be compatible with DisplayPort, they have different sized connectors. Therefore, they cannot always be used interchangeably without an adapter. The Mini DisplayPort is smaller and was commonly used in some laptops and tablets, whereas the standard DisplayPort is larger and more commonly found on desktops and monitors.
