hub
<networking> (By analogy with the hub of a wheel) A device connected to
several other devices.
In ARCnet, a hub is used to connect several computers together. In a message
handling service, a number of local computers might exchange messages solely
with a hub computer. The hub would be responsible for exchanging messages with
other hubs and non-local computers.
