Networking involves different types of devices, i will describe for you in simple language
Repeater : Repeater is a device that extends the network length , Repeater also regenerate the weak signal. a normally CAT 5 cable is only capable of signal up to the 100 meter distance to carry the signal so after 100 meter. we should connect a repeater to extend the length of a cable.
Hub : Hub is a multiport repeater that also extends the network length and regenerate the weak signal
Hub is a device normally used in a LAN to connect multiple computers or Nodes to create a Local Area Network. Hub Normally create a single collision domain . Hub is Half duplex device so that only signal is transmitted two way direction but not the same time. Hub creates the loop beacuase of this half duplex mechanism .
Types of Hub: Active and Passive
Active Hub Require Electric Current via external adapter while Passive hub do not require additional adapter to provide current .
