    This must be for commercial displays where it is beneficial for installation to have power and data over a single cable.

    I can’t think why I would want power delivery to my PC monitor over the display cable. It would just put extra thermal load on the GPU.

      I think it’s aimed at TVs in general, not computer monitors. Many people mount their TVs to the wall, and having a single cable to run hidden in the wall would be awesome.
