Search VESA's DisplayPort certification registry — the monitors, TVs, cables, adapters, docks, graphics cards, notebooks, phones and headsets VESA has certified for DisplayPort. Narrows by product-name keyword, registry section, certifying vendor and certification class. Returns each product's registry id, the alias and address of its registry page where the card links to one, the manufacturer, the model, the certification classes it is filed under and the certified flag the registry prints on it. A broad query is answered with the first part of its matches rather than the whole set, so narrowing by section, vendor or class is what makes an answer complete.

How to use it

The registry lists only what a vendor asked VESA to publish, so absence is not evidence a product is uncertified. Several `manufacturers` widen the result set to their union, while `search`, `category` and `product_types` narrow it. `product_types` are section-specific — DP80 cable classes live under cables-adaptors, panel classes under monitors-tvs — so pass the matching `category` or the call is rejected. Pass a returned `alias` to /vesa/displayport/products for the family model and part numbers the same certification covers, which the cards do not carry. About a fifth of the cards link to the vendor's own site rather than to the registry page, so their `url` is off displayport.org and their `alias` is null; pass those rows' numeric `id` instead — every row carries one and it resolves to the registry page. A query broader than one answer comes back truncated and repeating it returns the same products, so reach the rest by splitting the query across sections, vendors and classes rather than by asking again.
