network adapter
connector

To attach your computer to a network or broadband device, connect one end of a
network cable to either a network jack or your network or broadband device. Connect
the other end of the network cable to the network adapter connector on the back
panel of your computer. A click indicates that the network cable has been securely
attached.

NOTE:

Do not plug a telephone cable into the network connector.

On computers with a network connector card, use the connector on the card.
