This was news last September, but since it will eventually supersede both HDMI and DisplayPort connections I reckon it's important enough to warrant a post here.

USB Implementers Forum, the support organization for the advancement and adoption of USB technology, today announced the publication of the USB4â„¢ specification, a major update to deliver the next-generation USB architecture that complements and builds upon the existing USB 3.2 and USB 2.0 architectures. The USB4 architecture is based on the Thunderboltâ„¢ protocol specification recently contributed by Intel Corporation to the USB Promoter Group. It doubles the maximum aggregate bandwidth of USB and enables multiple simultaneous data and display protocols.
