	A couple of points before I get directly to the answer. You should ask 
this question in a Mac group not an Apple// group. There *is* a 
difference in the machines. After all the Apple// paid for the 
development of the Macintosh and predates it by a number of years. 
Groups to look for would contain "mac" in the title. For example 
comp.sys.mac.*, comp.mac.*, or comp.os.mac.*.

	To answer your question... Yes it is possible. If you are using an 
ethernet LAN with 10BaseT cable (Cat 5) the hub is simply a standard 
ethernet hub. This is what I use. If you are thinking about Appletalk 
then I can't help.
