The reason it is called a network in the first place is because various pieces of hardware (notebooks, desktops, printers, copiers, fax machines, storage) are all connected together - therefore they are networked. A network is typically referred to as a LAN (Local Area Network) if it is in within one location. If it spans to more than one building it can be called a MAN (Metropolitan Area Network).
When LANs are connected together via communication links, those communication links are referred to as a WAN (Wide Area Network)
