Detailed explanation-1: -it is easy to implement and to add more nodes to the network. it is quick to set up. it uses less cabling than some other network topologies and is therefore cost effective.
Detailed explanation-2: -The main advantage of bus topology is that they are less expensive, easy to use, easy to install, and require small length cable. The bus topology doesn’t affect the whole network when one computer fails, only the whole network fails when the backbone failure affects.
Detailed explanation-3: -Easy to connect a computer or peripheral to a linear bus. Requires less cable length than a star topology. Entire network shuts down if there is a break in the main cable. Difficult to identify the problem if the entire network shuts down. Not meant to be used as a stand-alone solution.
