Types Network Topologies
• Ring Topology: In the upper left, PCs are connected in a ring, where each
PC is connected to exactly two other PCs, forming a circular pathway for
data.
• Bus Topology: In the upper right, PCs are connected to a single cable or
"bus" with terminators at each end.
• Hybrid Topology: A central "Hybrid" bus seems to act as a backbone,
connecting the other topologies.
• Star Topology: In the lower left, PCs are connected to a central hub.
• Mesh Topology: In the lower right, PCs are interconnected with multiple
redundant connections, providing high reliability.
