Detailed explanation-1: -The bus topology has one cable that connects every device on the network, which is called the backbone. At each end of the main cable there is a small device called a terminator, which absorbs the signals when they reach the end, to prevent interference.
Detailed explanation-2: -Terminators are used in bus topology.
Detailed explanation-3: -Entire network shuts down if there is a break in the main cable. Terminators are required at both ends of the backbone cable. Difficult to identify the problem if the entire network shuts down. Not meant to be used as a stand-alone solution in a large building.
Detailed explanation-4: -Bus topology Termination is important issue in bus networks. The electrical signal from a transmitting computer is free to travel the entire length of the cable. Without the termination, when the signal reaches the end of the wire, it bounces back and travels back up the wire.
