2. Ethernet hub - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_hub

   4-port 10BASE-T Ethernet hub with selectable MDI-X/MDI port 8-port Ethernet hub with one 10BASE2 connector and eight 10BASE-T ports. An Ethernet hub, active hub, network hub, repeater hub, multiport repeater, or simply hub [a] is a network hardware device for connecting multiple Ethernet devices together and making them act as a single network segment.

3. Hub (network science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hub_(network_science)

   In network science, a hub is a node with a number of links that greatly exceeds the average. Emergence of hubs is a consequence of a scale-free property of networks. [1]: 27 While hubs cannot be observed in a random network, they are expected to emerge in scale-free networks.

4. Network topology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

   The hub is the server and the peripherals are the clients. The network does not necessarily have to resemble a star to be classified as a star network, but all of the peripheral nodes on the network must be connected to one central hub. All traffic that traverses the network passes through the central hub, which acts as a signal repeater.

5. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple...

   CSMA/CD was used in now-obsolete shared-medium Ethernet variants (10BASE5, 10BASE2), and in the early versions of twisted-pair Ethernet, which used repeater hubs. Modern Ethernet networks, built with switches and full-duplex connections, no longer need to use CSMA/CD, because each Ethernet segment, or collision domain, is now isolated. CSMA/CD ...

6. Networking hardware - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Networking_hardware

   Unlike less advanced network hubs, a network switch forwards data only to one or multiple devices that need to receive it, rather than broadcasting the same data out of each of its ports. [5] It works on OSI layer 2. Bridge: a device that connects multiple network segments. It works on OSI layers 1 and 2. [6]

7. Network switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_switch

   A network switch (also called switching hub, bridging hub, Ethernet switch, and, by the IEEE, MAC bridge [1]) is networking hardware that connects devices on a computer network by using packet switching to receive and forward data to the destination device.

8. Backbone network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbone_network

   A backbone or core network is a part of a computer network which interconnects networks, providing a path for the exchange of information between different LANs or subnetworks. [1] A backbone can tie together diverse networks in the same building, in different buildings in a campus environment, or over wide areas.

9. Node (networking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(networking)

   A physical network node is an electronic device that is attached to a network, and is capable of creating, receiving, or transmitting information over a communication channel. [1] In data communication, a physical network node may either be data communication equipment (such as a modem , hub , bridge or switch ) or data terminal equipment (such ...
