Line 7:
A network card typically has a [[twisted pair]], [[BNC connector|BNC]], or [[Attachment Unit Interface|AUI]] socket where the network cable is connected, and a few [[Light-emitting diode|LED]]s to inform the user of whether the network is active, and whether or not there is data being transmitted on it.
 
Most newer computers have ana [[ethernet]]network interface built into the [[motherboard]], so a separate network card is not required unless multiple interfaces are needed or some other type of network is used.
