What Is a Server Network Adapter?
Network card, also known as network adapter or network interface card (NIC), the English name is Network Interface Card. In the network, if a computer does not have a network card, then this computer will not be able to communicate with other computers, and it will not get any services provided by the server. Of course, if the server does not have a network card, it cannot be called a server. Therefore, a network card is a necessary device for the server, just like an ordinary PC (personal computer) with a processor. The network card on the PC that we usually see is mainly to connect the PC and the LAN (local area network), and the server network card is generally used to connect the server and network equipment such as switches.
