Network Interface Card Question & Answers

November 15, 2022 By WatElectronics

This article lists 25 Network Interface Card MCQs for engineering students. All the Network Interface Card Questions & Answers given below include a hint and a link wherever possible to the relevant topic. This is helpful for users who are preparing for their exams, or interviews, or professionals who would like to brush up on the fundamentals of Network Interface Card.     

The network interface card provides an interface between the computer and the networking medium. It prepares, sends, and controls data flow across the network. Each network interface card has a unique hardware network address. The things that are important to consider when selecting NIC are the type of network, type of media, and type of system bus. 

The data transfer, buffering, encapsulation, MAC address storage, signal encoding, and decoding are the basic functions of network interface cards. The module transmitting and receiving, the module of encoding, and decoding are the functional parts of the network interface card.  The module of transmitting and receiving consists of various circuits of signals with data. The module of encoding decoding generates and stores the sender and receiver addresses. The NIC has a unique identifier called a media access control address.  

The advantage of network interface cards is the communication speed used in gigabytes, highly reliable connection, bulk data can be shared among many users, and many peripheral devices can be connected using many ports of network interface cards. 

The disadvantage of NIC is inconvenient in the case of wired cable NIC, as it is not portable like a wireless router, the configuration should be proper for better communication, and the data is unsecured. The applications of network interface cards are applicable for wireless communication devices like firewalls, bridges, and repeaters and applicable for wired communication devices such as hubs, switches, routers, smartphones, etc.
