Einleitung
The LCD main board is the backbone of the Apple Studio Display M2454. It accepts the information coming from the computer and transmits this data to the screen to form an image. The main board is also wired into the USB ports on the back of the monitor and other circuitry. There are many connections but replacing this board is relatively easy.
