It stays digital and, as far as I know, the only analog components/outputs
on a PC are the sound card's audio outs and your video cards VGA output.

Network cards talk in binary (digital) there is no need to convert to
analogue.

A Modem converts Digital to Analogue to sent the signal down a telephone
line.
