Description
Product Details
A network adapter is a hardware device that enables communication between a computer and a network. It connects the computer to a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN) by transmitting and receiving data. Network adapters are also known as network interface cards (NICs) or network interface controllers (NICs).
