  2. Network interface controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_interface_controller

    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.

  3. Wireless network interface controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_network_interface...

    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabit_Ethernet

    1000BASE-T capable network interface card made by Intel, which connects to the computer via PCI-X. There are five physical layer standards for Gigabit Ethernet using optical fiber (1000BASE-X), twisted pair cable (1000BASE-T), or shielded balanced copper cable (1000BASE-CX).

  6. 3Com 3c509 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3Com_3c509

    3Com 3c509B-Combo card (3C509BC), second generation for the ISA 16-bit bus and 10BASE-T, AUI and 10BASE-2. 3Com 3c509 is a line of Ethernet IEEE 802.3 network cards for the ISA, EISA, MCA and PCMCIA computer buses. [1] It was designed by 3Com and put on the market in 1992, followed by the improved version 3c509B in 1994. [1] [2]

  7. Converged network adapter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Converged_network_adapter

    A converged network adapter (CNA), also called a converged network interface controller (C-NIC), is a computer input/output device that combines the functionality of a host bus adapter (HBA) with a network interface controller (NIC). In other words, it "converges" access to, respectively, a storage area network and a general-purpose computer ...

  8. WAN Interface Card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAN_Interface_Card

    A WAN interface card (WIC) is a type of specialized network interface controller card made by Cisco that allows a network device such as a router to connect and transmit data over a wide area network.

  9. TCP offload engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_offload_engine

    TCP offload engine (TOE) is a technology used in some network interface cards (NIC) to offload processing of the entire TCP/IP stack to the network controller. It is primarily used with high-speed network interfaces, such as gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, where processing overhead of the network stack becomes significant.
