Answer:

PC network interface card.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ethernet cable is used in a wired network to connect devices. The wiring standard for Ethernet is T568A and T568B, they are used separately to create a straight through cable for connecting unsimilar network devices like pc - switch, switch- router etc. They are used together (with one on both ends) to create cross through cable for connecting similar devices in a network.

WAP is a wireless platform, so does not use the Ethernet protocol. The router and switch uses pin 3 and 6 to transmit and receive signal. But the PC interface card only uses the pin 3 and 6 to transmit in the T568A wiring standard.
