switches
Explanation:
Απ'ότι ξέρω και το switch και το switcher λέγονται μεταγωγείς.
Το πώς θα το πεις στα αγγλικά εξαρτάται από το κόντεξτ. Το switch είναι hardware, ενώ το switcher είναι software. Θα βρεις αρκετές πηγές που μιλάνε για e-mail switchers (μεταγωγείς ηλεκτρονικών μηνυμάτων), αλλά "ethernet switches".
Και μια που ρωτάς αν το switch είναι το ίδιο με το router, είναι κάτι παρόμοιο, με τη διαφορά ότι το switch λειτουργεί μεταξύ κόμβων, ενώ το router μεταξύ δικτύων.

Αντιγράφω από το http://computer.howstuffworks.com/lan-switch.htm:

Switches are a fundamental part of most networks. They make it possible for several users to send information over a network at the same time without slowing each other down. Just like routers allow different networks to communicate with each other, switches allow different nodes (a network connection point, typically a computer) of a network to communicate directly with one another in a smooth and efficient manner.
