I butchered Coaxile, but if you do not know what I am mean, I am trying to say the cord you plug into your computer or for your TV for older RCRs and older game concoles. I was woundering what type would plug into a NIC ISA/PCI/Nubus card for a PC/Mac? I tried and it won't fit, I am trying to use the dish I have as a antenna for internet. Thanks!

You can't plug a dish into a NIC and expect it to work.
Anyway, the connector for a 10 Base 2 network is BNC.

I know what you mean, Ti. I have this old 1980s model NEC VCR, and although it has RCA plugs for Audio in/out, it has BNC plugs for video in/out. For years, i've been wondering what those funny looking connectors were, until i took a spare piece of BNC cable and plugged it in. Perfect fit! Now, to see if Dick Smiths has BNC -> RCA cable adapters....

In video production a lot of the older hardware we use, studio monitors, cameras, etc, use BNC connectors. It was at one time a very good and standard connector for video, but has lately been replaced by component, and the many digital connectors.
