That's the difference between a hub and a switch. A hub connects
physically connected devices on a shared medium and collision domain. A
switch establishes a point to point connection between physically
connected devices and uses dedicated RX/TX pairs - no paket collisions.
It uses a fast switch engine and buffers.
