An automatic fire alarm system is an active fire protection system designed to detect the unwanted presence of fire by monitoring environmental changes associated with combustion. In general, a fire alarm system is either classified as automatic, manually activated, or both. The basic modern system consists of a dependable primary power supply, a secondary or backup power supply, any number of "initiating devices" and "notification appliances." Automatic fire alarm systems can be used to notify people

Ethernet cards are essential parts of a network. They connect a computer to another computer or to a server by using a cable, an alternative to a wireless network. Ethernet Network – The Role of Ethernet in Computer Networks An ethernet network is a situation in which multiple computers are connected to one another and share the same Internet protocol address. An ethernet network has multiple computers on the same server. The benefit in this is that multiple networks do not need to be created.
