- 1HubA hub is used to connect devices to a LAN
- 2SwitchUses packet switching to connect devices through receiving, processing and forwarding information, two or more devices connected and helps stop data collisions. A device will only see the device it requires none of the other devices connected. Considered Intelligent.
- 3RouterRoutes data through the fastest and best route to the intended device.
