Is Displayport on my All-in-one PC input or output?

I have an all-in-one HP desktop. It has VGA and DisplayPort at the back but no HDMI. I want to get a custom built Desktop without having to buy a new monitor due to budget issues. I was wondering if there was a way to find out whether the DisplayPort at the back is an input or output without connecting a separate monitor as i do not own any DisplayPort capable devices or even a DisplayPort cable. My PC is an HP ProOne 400 G1 if that helps.

The DisplayPort is an output. See page 7 of your manual at http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04119992. Most all-in-one machines don't allow you to use the built-in panel as an input for another machine.
