Abstract
A network interface card includes a receiving unit and a capturing unit. The receiving unit is used for receiving a first hot-plug signal transmitted from a remote network apparatus via an HDMI. The capturing unit is coupled to the receiving unit, for capturing a physical address of the remote network apparatus via the HDMI. After the physical address of the remote network apparatus is captured by the capturing unit, the network interface card communicates with the remote network apparatus by using the HDMI.
