Detailed explanation-1: -A telephone network is an example of a circuit switched network. Therefore, the correct answer is option (b)
Detailed explanation-2: -Description. The defining example of a circuit-switched network is the early analog telephone network. When a call is made from one telephone to another, switches within the telephone exchanges create a continuous wire circuit between the two telephones, for as long as the call lasts.
Detailed explanation-3: -The public telephone network is a good example of a circuit switched network. In a circuit switching network, the path that will be used through the network is determined prior to any data transfer.
Detailed explanation-4: -An example of a circuit-switched network is an analog telephone network. It contrasts with packet-switched networks, which break the communication into packets and then send those packets through the network independently of one another.
Detailed explanation-5: -The call connection process in the telephone network uses a form of switching, known as. By dedicated, we mean that no other phone call can use this circuit and the capacity required for this circuit.
