That's a network interface card for the Corvus Omninet network.  Not a
terribly rare item (I've got a dozen or so <g>).  It allowed Apples
(and some other early machines) to load files from an Omnidrive server
(also prevalent at flea markets).  The docs and software are a bit
more elusive, however.
