combo card in nic-speak means it has both the coax and rj-45
cable sockets. the remote i believe is meant to work with probably
a 3com transmitter tower for wireless networking.
i'd check out the 3com site with those model numbers to be sure,
they probably have pictures and specs.
http://www.3com.com
it would have been nifty if they also had http://www.3.com,
but i guess the cost associated is just too high for a small company
like 3com...=)
hope this helped.
