Year 7 network topologies

Draw a diagram that represents a ring network with 5 computers.

What is a star network?

• A network where all devices are connected to a central hub

• A network where all devices are connected in a circle.

• A network where devices are connected in a straight line.

• A network where every device is connected to every other device

What happens if the central hub in a star network fails?

• Only the central hub stops working.

• The entire network stops working.

• Nothing happens; the network continues to work.

• Only one connected device stops working

Draw a diagram that represents a bus network with 6 computers.

Which network type connects devices in a closed loop?

• Star network

• Bus network

• Ring network

• Mesh network

What is the main disadvantage of a ring network?

• It's too expensive to set up.

• If one device fails, the entire network is affected.

• It requires a lot of cables.

• Data transfer is very slow.

In a bus network, all devices are connected using a

What is a mesh network?

• A network where all devices connect to a central hub

• A network where devices connect in a straight line.

• A network where devices are connected to multiple other devices.

• A network with a closed loop structure.

In a bus network, how are devices connected?

• In a loop.

• Using a central hub.

• Along a single main cable.

• With multiple connections to each other.

What is the advantage of a star network?

• Easy to add new devices.

• It uses less cable.

• It is the fastest network type.

• It can work without a central hub.
