A **Hub** connects multiple computer networking devices together. A hub also acts as a [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:r:repeater|repeater]] in that it amplifies signals that deteriorate after traveling long distances over connecting cables. A hub is the simplest in the family of network connecting devices because it connects [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:l:lan|LAN]] components with identical protocols. | A **Hub** connects multiple computer networking devices together.
