Q:
IT205 - Network Topologies CheckPoint (Week 6 Day 5)
____________________________________________________________

I have recieved full credit on this assignment 30/30.

In the word document I have put together a table for each of the three topologies. This table shows the components, devices, arrangments of the two, as well as the pros and cons for the configurations. This helps to make things easier to understand.

I think you will enjoy this assignment.

Total document is 795 words.

A:
Preview: ... to one main network cable. This cable is generally considered the backbone or bus. Due to the small use of cables involved in this setup, a bus topology is also considered to be more inexpensive then other topologies. For this reason and the added simplicity of this network, the Bus Topology is considered the most widely used in business. With one primary cable that branches off onto each device it is easy to add new devices without any new configurations or installation labor. One disadvantage of this topology is that all devices rely on one single cable to contain the network connection. If the main cable were to be cut or disconnected, all devices would loose complete connection and the network would shut down. If this instance were to occur it could be difficult to determine the cause of the shut down. Components Network Cables Devices Computers, Severs, Printers. Arrangement of each A Main cable is placed (Bus or Backbone). ...
