Detailed explanation-1: -A NIC provides a computer with a dedicated, full-time connection to a network. It implements the physical layer circuitry necessary for communicating with a data link layer standard, such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Each card represents a device and can prepare, transmit and control the flow of data on the network.
Detailed explanation-2: -Network cards can communicate with each other over the same network using a network switch, or if two computers are directly connected. When computers need to connect to a different network (e.g., the Internet), they must use a router to route the network packets to the correct network.

It is a circuit board installed in a computer that provides a dedicated network connection to the computer.
