Abstract

In example implementations, a method to change a data transfer configuration of a data cable is provided. The method includes receiving a selection of a data transfer configuration option from a plurality of different data transfer configuration options of a data cable that has data lanes to transfer video data and non-video data. A reported number of supported resolutions or refresh rates is modified in accordance with the data transfer configuration option that is selected. The reported number of supported resolutions or refresh rates that is modified is then transmitted to a computing device connected to a display device via the data cable to transmit data via the data cable in accordance with the data transfer configuration option that is selected.
