There are 4 major categories of physical components in a computer network:

1. PCs

2. Interconnections: they consist of components

that provide means for data to travel

from one point to another point in the network, this category includes components

such as the following:

1. NICs: (Network Interface Cards), translates the data produced by the computer

into a format that can be transmitted over the local network (digital to

analog).

2. Network media: such as cables or wireless media, that provide the means by

which the signals are transmitted from one network device to another.

3. Connectors: provide the connection points for the media, i.e RJ-45

3. Switches: devices that provide network attachments to the end systems and

intelligent switching of the data within the local network.

4. Routers: interconnects networks and chooses the best path between networks for data

to go through.
