Fully Connected Network:

Mesh Network:

  • Highly redundant paths

Ring network:

  • all information is broadcasted to every device
  • Only the system with the ring token gets to talk
  • No collision
  • Predictable(deterministic)

Bus network:

  • oldest topologies
  • 2 people cannot talk at the same time
  • connected to a common coxal cable
  • data is broadcasted to every device

Star network:

  • most common topology
  • cable break will only affect one node
  • nodes don't have to share cable to central device

Star-Mesh hybrid:

  • The world is a star-mesh hybrid
