d) Network devices – also known as network equipment or computer
networking hardware, are electronic devices which are required for
communication and interaction between devices on a computer
network. Specifically, they mediate data transmission in a computer
network.
Examples:
A hub also called a network hub, is a common
connection point for devices in a network. Hubs
are network devices commonly used to connect
segments of a LAN. The hub contains multiple
ports. When a packet arrives at one port, it is
copied to the other ports so that all segments of
the LAN can see all packets.
