A network interface controller (NIC, also known as a network interface card, [3] network adapter, LAN adapter and physical network interface [4]) is a computer hardware component that connects a computer to a computer network. [5] Early network interface controllers were commonly implemented on expansion cards that plugged into a computer bus.
NC-SI, abbreviated from network controller sideband interface, is an electrical interface and protocol defined by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). The NC-SI enables the connection of a baseboard management controller (BMC) to one or more network interface controllers (NICs) in a server computer system for the purpose of enabling out-of-band system management.
Supermicro AOC-SGP-I2 dual-port Gigabit Ethernet NIC, a PCI Express ×4 card. 1000BASE-T (also known as IEEE 802.3ab) is a standard for Gigabit Ethernet over twisted-pair wiring. Each 1000BASE-T network segment is recommended to be a maximum length of 100 meters (330 feet), [5] [a] and must use Category 5 cable or better (including Cat 5e and ...
A small, highly integrated form factor, designed for small devices such as thin clients and set-top boxes. Nano-ITX: VIA 2003 120 × 120 mm (4.7 × 4.7 in) Targeted at smart digital entertainment devices such as PVRs, set-top boxes, media centers and Car PCs, and thin devices. Pico-ITX: VIA 2007 100 × 72 mm max (3.9 × 2.8 in) Mobile-ITX: VIA
A wireless network interface controller may be implemented as an expansion card and connected using PCI bus or PCIe bus, or connected via USB, PC Card, ExpressCard, Mini PCIe or M.2. The low cost and ubiquity of the Wi-Fi standard means that many newer mobile computers have a wireless network interface built into the motherboard.
A network on a chip or network-on-chip (NoC / ˌ ɛ n ˌ oʊ ˈ s iː / en-oh-SEE or / n ɒ k / knock) [nb 1] is a network-based communications subsystem on an integrated circuit ("microchip"), most typically between modules in a system on a chip ().
Standard cards are 75 mm (3.0 in) long (10.6 mm (0.42 in) shorter than CardBus) and 5 mm (0.20 in) thick, but may be thicker on sections that extend outside the standard form for antennas, sockets, etc. With its 75 mm standard length, the ExpressCard will protrude 5 mm over the holder's surface (e.g. laptop surface), whereas a variant with 70 ...
