The type of connection used between
a NIC and a network depends on that
network technology.In some technologies,the
NIC contains most of the necessary hardware,and attaches directly to the network medium using a single cable or optical fiber.In many other technologies,the
NIC does not contain all the electronic circuitry needed to attach directly to the network.Instead,the cable from
a NIC attaches to an additional electronic component that then attaches to the network.Surprisingly,the exact details of the connection between
a NIC and a network are not determined by the technology that means a given
network technology can support multiple wiring schemes.Let take the example of
Ethernet technology in which technology i.e Ethernet remains same while the wiring scheme changes.Wiring scheme can be
Thick Ethernet Wiring,Thin Ethernet Wiring and Twisted pair Ethernet Wiring.
