That is a step down from a router, and a step up from a "hub". Usually 
called a switch if it can handle a circuit per rj45 jack. Managed 
usually cost a bit more but most managed switches can NAT between ipv4's 
254 addreeses to a different address.  I have such an 8 port switch in 
the room with all my 3d printers but I'm not using that feature.  It 
just works like a hub but noticeably faster.
