Network Topologies are in essence the way the network is laid out as it relates to the devices that are connected to it. If you could view all the devices connected to the network, the arrangement would suggest which type the network topology it falls within. The topologies can be described as either a physical or logical design in their defined layout. Network topologies are grouped in the following design categories, Mesh, Bus, Ring and Star Topologies. A mesh topology comes in two varieties

TOPOLOGY: Local Area Networks (Hybrid Topology) A conceptual diagram of a local area network with the features of Bus topology combined with Ring topology. A design that utilizes a single length of cable, also known as the medium, with directly attached LAN stations. All stations share this cable segment. Every station on this segment sees transmissions from every other station on the cable segment; this is known as a broadcast medium. The LAN attachment stations are definite endpoints to

Local are networks (LAN) is a computer network covering a small geographic area, like a home, office, school, or group of buildings. Has a High speed (1000 mbps) Tends to use certain connectivity technologies, primarily Ethernet and Token Ring. LANs tend to have fewer problems associated with them, as there are smaller numbers of systems to deal with. Wide area network (WAN) is a computer network that covers a broad area. It does have slower speeds of about 150 mbps. WANs tend to use technologies

systems had twisted wires installed for analog communication but can also be used for digital. The twisted wires used in today’s LANs, such as CAT5, can obtain speeds up to 1 Gbps but is limited to a maximum run of 100 meters. Coaxial cable consists of thickly insulated copper wire that can transmit a larger volume of data than that of twisted wire. Coax was used in early LANs and is still used for longer runs on larger buildings. Coax has a maximum speed of up to 1 Gbps. Fiber-optic cable has bound

Ramirez LAN Topologies IT/240 Carlos Zapata May 31, 2014 LAN Topologies Case Project I The changes in equipment that would be required to bring Old-Tech Corporation up to date and solve the shared bandwidth problem would be to change their network scheme. To go from a Star topology to and extended star topology, which their logical topology would be a ring. We would have to buy five wireless nic-cards to start to accommodate the cabling issue in the warehouse as well as a wireless
