Typical
routers have only 4 ports for wired connections. If you have more than
4 computers and devices that require wired connections on the same
network, you will need additional ports. Network switches and hubs
provide such "port" expansion. There are many generations of switches
and hubs, from 10mb date transfer rate dating back many years ago to
the newest gigabit data transfer rate. The high speed switch makes
broadband internet connections of multiple computers in the same
network possible. |
