No, there are layer 1 hubs for Fast Ethernet, which were once a 
reasonable alternative to switches for selected applications, until 
switch prices came down.  A Fast Ethernet hub does have collisions.

It is true that Fast Ethernet does not use (so far as I know) shared 
cable such as 10Base5 or 10Base2.

It will not.  Although if you have a 2500 series with two Ethernet 
ports, there is a hack where you can combine the two with a Y-cable, 
making one port transmit-only and one port receive-only, and connect 
the joined end of the Y-cable to a full duplex switch port.
