Question

In this topology, a single backbone wire called _________ is shared among the nodes, which makes it cheaper and easier to maintain.

• A. Knot
• B. Ring
• C. Star
• D. Bus

Hint:

Bus topology uses a single backbone cable shared by all devices, making it simple and cost-effective.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

In a bus topology, all devices connect to a single central cable, the bus or backbone, enabling shared communication. Its single cable makes it cost-effective and simple to set up and manage. A drawback is that a backbone failure disables the entire network, though its simplicity and affordability still make it suitable for smaller networks.
