Collisions have the effect of clogging up a network because they prevent data from being sent. The more hosts you have sharing a wire, and the more data they have to send, the worse it gets. A group of devices that are affected by one another's collisions is called a collision domain. As networks grew, it became necessary to break up collision domains so that there were fewer collisions in each one. Devices called bridges and switches did this.
