Detailed explanation-1: -Ring topology is a type of network topology in which each device is connected to two other devices on either side via an RJ-45 cable or coaxial cable. This forms a circular ring of connected devices which gives it its name. Data is commonly transferred in one direction along the ring, known as a unidirectional ring.
Detailed explanation-2: -In wide area networks (WAN) and meteropolitan area networks (MAN), a ring topology is used to as the topology for the backbone (sometimes called a city ring) to connect the customers. In that case the ring is used in both directions to have two distinctive paths to the public switch.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ring Topology: In Ring topology, there is a circular data path. Each of the devices is connected to two other devices in the network.
Detailed explanation-4: -In ring topology, the computers in the network are connected in a circular fashion, and the data travels in one direction.
