Zorluk: OrtaNetwork Types and Topologies

A field technician is deploying workstation peripherals for a user who needs to connect a wireless Bluetooth headset, smartwatch, and mobile phone within an immediate workspace radius of 3 meters. Which of the following network types best classifies this short-range personal device connection?

  1. Personal Area Network (PAN)Cevap
  2. B
    Local Area Network (LAN)
  3. C
    Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
  4. D
    Wide Area Network (WAN)

Cevap

Personal Area Network (PAN)
The correct choice is Personal Area Network (PAN) because PANs are specifically designed for low-power, short-range inter-device communication (typically within 10 meters) centered on a single user's personal workspace using protocols like Bluetooth.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the operational range and device context described in the scenario.
The devices (headset, smartwatch, phone) communicate within a 3-meter personal radius using Bluetooth.
Geographic network classifications depend on physical scale and communication distance.
2
Compare the scenario parameters against standard network scope definitions.
Connections within an individual's immediate reach (typically under 10 meters) are categorized as a PAN.
LAN, MAN, and WAN cover progressively larger areas such as buildings, cities, and regions.
