	Network card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A network card (also called network adapter, network interface card, NIC, etc.) is a piece of computer hardware designed to provide for computer communication over a computer network.
		Whereas network cards used to be expansion cards to plug into a computer bus, most newer computers have a network interface built into the motherboard, so a separate network card is not required unless multiple interfaces are needed or some other type of network is used.
		A network card typically has a twisted pair, BNC, or AUI socket where the network cable is connected, and a few LEDs to inform the user of whether the network is active, and whether or not there is data being transmitted on it.

	Network Interface Card (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		A network interface card is used to connect a computer to an Ethernet network.
		Each network interface card is assigned an Ethernet source address by the manufacturer of the network interface card (this is normally stored in a PROM on the network interface card).
		The addresses are globally unique, and are assigned in blocks of 16 (or 8) million address to the Ethernet interface manufacturers, according to a flat addressing structure.

		A network interface unit (NIU) (sometimes called a network interface device) is a device that serves as a commmon interface for various other devices within a local area network (LAN), or as an interface to allow networked computers to connect to an outside network.
		The NIU enables communication between devices that use different protocols by supplying a common transmission protocol, which may be used instead of the devices' own protocols, or may be used to convert the specific device protocol to the common one.
		To enable an interface between a LAN and another network, the NIU converts protocols and associated code and acts as a buffer between the connected hardware.
