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.

cat5, cat6, utp, stp cables etc.
The most common LAN topology is that of a "star." In a star topology, each computer, or "node", is connected to a central hub. This is more reliable than a more classical "ring" topology, because a node failing will not bring down the entire network. A bus topology is arguably more reliable, but has poorer performance.

Either bus topology or star toplogy.
star good luck on chapter 12!

It's used for Star topology.
