What is the purpose of a GC-SPDIF expansion card?

I reciently purchased a Gigabyte GA-8IHXP motherboard.  It came with a GC-SPDIF expansion card.  The manual that came with the motherboard does not mention this card.  I would like to know what it is used for, so that I can decide on whether to install the card.

A comment for general information:  This Gigabyte intallation manual is very poorly written.  The Taiwanese who wrote it must have failed his English course.  The book lacks important information and detailed information on topics covered.
