Detailed explanation-1: -Without the termination, when the signal reaches the end of the wire, it bounces back and travels back up the wire. When a signal echoes back and forth along an unterminated bus, it is called ringing. The terminators absorb the electrical energy and stop the reflections.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -A Terminator, or T-Unit, is a type of Hunter-Killer designed to terminate other life forms. Various Terminators are built by an artificially intelligent computer called Skynet in order to wipe out the remains of the human race after Judgment Day.
Detailed explanation-4: -To stop the signal from bouncing, a component called a terminator is placed at each end of the cable to absorb free signals.
Detailed explanation-5: -Option (B)-In the bus topology, the terminator is located at the end of the cable. These are used to avoid the signal reflection and absorb those signals, Therefore, this is the correct option.
