Lan Hardware: - Network Cable - Cable Interface Unit or Hub - Nic - Bridge - Router - Gateway

This document discusses the hardware and components used in local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks (WANs). It outlines common LAN hardware such as network cables, hubs, network interface cards, bridges and routers. It also describes the two main LAN models - client-server and peer-to-peer. For WANs, it lists physical transmission media like dedicated lines, microwaves, satellites and fiber optic cables as well as hardware like multiplexers, routers and front end processors. Finally, it notes some common uses of WANs such as electronic data interchange and international networks.
