Network Interface Card (NIC)
Network Interface Card (NIC) and
other PCI controller cards giving your PC added capability. If you decide
to connect your home or business computers together to form your own
mini-network, you’ll need to install network interface cards on
each PC you plan to connect together (unless your mainboards include
built-in LAN connections).
Adding a controller card to your
PC is easy. These cards are designed to plug into existing slots in
your PC mainboard. These slots are called expansion slots. Today, PCI
slots are the most common. The older ISA slots are now outdated.
