Ethernet card
The most popular form of Network Interface Card (NIC) available, Ethernet cards allow PCs to interface with one another over home networks and broadband Internet connections. The very popular 10/100 Base-T Ethernet card — now a standard inclusion on many new PCs — allows transmission speeds of either 10 Mbps (megabits per second) or 100 Mbps, automatically self-adjusting to the proper speed for the type of connection being made. With this flexibility, Ethernet cards are capable of a particularly wide variety of connection options.
