Detailed answer by teachoo
A network topology is the physical arrangement of the cables and devices in a network. A possible topology for a campus network is the bus topology , where all the devices are connected to a single cable, called the bus or backbone. The bus topology has the following benefits:
- It is simple and easy to install
- It requires less cable length and cost
- It allows easy addition and removal of devices
So, the correct answer is bus topology .
-endlock-
