Token ring
a cable looped to itself and shared by all nodes
You may be thinking of a token-ring network.
what type of cable would you used to create a ring topology?
Bus Topology.
Mesh topology- a cable at fault not affect others. Ring topology- a cable at fault, only affect side by side, If main cable at fault ,whole system shut down. Star topology- a cable at fault, others are not affected. If Hub at fault, whole system shut down. Bus topology- main cable at fault, system will shut down. a cable at fault,will not affect others.
its called a cable
Star topology is like the network is done by easily adding another network and the most common cable is used unshielded twisted pair cable. For the star topology purpose, Cat5 and Cat6 cable is used because it is an unshielded and shielded twisted pair cable.
physical topology support multiple logical topology because quality and speed of cable wires effect efficiency of network
A bus topology needs a trunk cable, which is a high speed central cable to which all the nodes can be connected. If the trunk cable breaks down, however, the whole network comes to a halt.
Wireless.
though mesh topology might require much cable, but it aids easy access to other network and reliability.
Bus topology is used on a LAN, or a Local Area Network. It is the cable to which the nodes connect, and it is also known as a backbone.
