A repeater is a device similar to the Hub, but has additional features. It also works in the Physical layer. The repeaters are used in places where amplification
A combination of two or more different topologies makes for a hybrid topology. When different topologies are connected to one another, they do not display characteristics of any one
A network setup where each computer and network device is interconnected with one another, allowing for most transmissions to be distributed, even if one of the connections go
Ring Topology is where each node connects exactly to two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node in a ring. This section will analyze
Imagine a hierarchy of network nodes, with the root node serving client nodes, that in turn serve other lower-level nodes. The top-level node is mostly a mainframe computer
Star Topology is the most common type of network topology that is used in homes and offices. In the Star Topology there is a central connection point called
Bus Topology is the simplest of network topologies. In this type of topology, all the nodes (computers as well as servers) are connected to the single cable (called bus),
The Communication Medium plays an important role in Networks. If the medium works well and properly, then the speed of transferring data is good but if the medium
There are various types of switches used in business networks. It is important to deploy the appropriate types of switches based on network requirements like; Cost – The cost
