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. Each device is connected to the main cable to join the network.
Detailed explanation-2: -Terminators are used in bus topology.
Detailed explanation-3: -Terminators are required for both ends of the main cable.
Detailed explanation-4: -Linear bus topology. All devices are connected to a single cable with two end points. Distributed bus topology. All devices are connected to a single cable that branches off into multiple sections, resulting in more than two end points.
