Imagine you live at an apartment building. The mail for every apartment gets dropped in a big bin and you have to look through it to find what letters are for you. That’s a hub.

The apartment management then installs mailboxes so you open your box and only the mail addressed to you is in there. That’s a switch.

The local post office that receives everyone’s mail and brings it to the building is a router.
