Zorluk: KolayNetwork Types and Topologies

A technician is deploying network cables in a small office space. Each desktop computer connects individually to a single central network switch. If any single workstation cable becomes damaged or disconnected, only that specific computer loses connection while all other devices remain operational. Which network topology is being utilized in this office?

  1. Star topologyCevap
  2. B
    Bus topology
  3. C
    Ring topology
  4. D
    Mesh topology

Cevap

The star topology connects every network device directly to a central point (such as a switch), ensuring that a failure in a single device connection does not interrupt connectivity for other devices on the network.
The star topology features individual point-to-point cable connections from each network host directly into a central networking device (such as a network switch). Because links are isolated between the host and switch, damage to one cable only disconnects the affected endpoint.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the cabling layout described in the scenario.
Every computer connects individually to a central network switch.
Identifying the physical connection pattern establishes the topology design.
2
Evaluate the fault tolerance symptom provided.
A single damaged cable affects only the single workstation attached to it.
Centralized point-to-point connections isolate physical cable failures to individual links.
3
Map these technical traits to standard network physical topologies.
A central network node connecting to isolated endpoint links describes a physical star topology.
This structural pattern defines the physical star topology layout used in modern Ethernet LANs.
