Best Answer

depends how you want to connect them and what for.

A simple network connection just needs

4x Ethernet Cables (Cat 5e Recomended)

1x 4 Port Swich.

The switch should cost £20-30

The cable depends on length but should be fairly cheap.

If you want an internet connection perhaps you have a router already from the ISP this may have 4 slots on the back for ethernet cables so you could use that.

If you use a router there may be firewall settings to overcome to make the connection work.

What components and cables are needed to connect 4 computers?

for connecting 4 computers you would need a "hub"(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_hub), and a cat5 cable to connect each computer to the "hub". each computer would also need a "network card"(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_card), alot of modern computers come with a network card integrated so you may not need to purchase it separately.

When would you use a crosslink cable?

Crossover cables are used when you are connecting two devices of the same type together. e.g. connecting two routers or two switches or two computers. A straight through cable is used to connect devices of different types. e.g. a computer to a switch or router. Using the correct cable is less important these days though as most networking devices have the capability to auto-sense what cable is being used and what cable is needed. The devices can simply change their configurations to whatever is needed to make the connections work. This technology is called Auto-MDIX (Media Dependant Interface Crossover).
