Detailed explanation-1: -Bus topology uses one main cable to which all nodes are directly connected. The main cable acts as a backbone for the network. One of the computers in the network typically acts as the computer server. The first advantage of bus topology is that it is easy to connect a computer or peripheral device.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a bus topology, all nodes in the network are connected directly to a central cable that runs up and down the network-this cable is known as the backbone . Data is sent up and down the backbone until it reaches the correct node.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bus topology uses a single cable which connects all the included nodes. The main cable acts as a spine for the entire network.
Detailed explanation-4: -Star topology is a network topology where each individual piece of a network is attached to a central node (often called a hub or switch).
