Hub




1) It has multiple input/output (I/O) ports, in which a signal introduced at the input of any port appears at the output of every port except the original incoming.

2) A hub works at the physical layer (layer 1) of the OSI model

3) There's 2 kinds of hub, Passive & Active (which needs adapter & it'll repeat the signals)
