What is a characteristic of Point-to-Point Topology?
What is a characteristic of Point-to-Point Topology?
- It provides a direct link between two nodes. (correct)
- It has a main cable connecting all nodes.
- It can support multiple nodes transmitting simultaneously.
- It relies on shared resources among many devices.
What is a disadvantage of Bus Topology?
What is a disadvantage of Bus Topology?
- Failure of one node can cause the entire network to malfunction. (correct)
- It requires a complex infrastructure.
- It uses a direct link between two devices.
- It allows multiple nodes to transmit data at once.
How does Bus Topology compare to Point-to-Point Topology in terms of reliability?
How does Bus Topology compare to Point-to-Point Topology in terms of reliability?
- Point-to-Point Topology is more reliable due to the direct connection. (correct)
- Bus Topology is more reliable due to its complex connections.
- Point-to-Point Topology is less reliable because it has only two nodes.
- Bus Topology is equally reliable as Point-to-Point Topology.

Study Notes
1-Point to Point Topology
- It uses a direct connection between two computers or nodes.
- This method is faster and more reliable than other connection types.
2-Bus Topology
- A network topology where all nodes connect to a single cable.
- It requires less cable, making it cost-effective.
- If a cable or terminator fails, the entire network is affected.
- Only one node can transmit data at a time.
- Failure of one node does not prevent others from transmitting data.
