There are lots of different ways. One example would be to simply connect them all to a switch, along with your host. Assuming the aggregate bandwidth doesn't exceed what the host's network card or switch can handle you'll be fine. You could also, as you mentioned, have a single host with 8 network interfaces, this is completely possible.
