Bus Topology is a Network Topology, in which network nodes are arranged in a linear format, with each node connected directly to the one main network cable with a T-Connecter or tap. Bus Topology is also known as Line Topology, is very easy to set up and requires no additional hardware such as hub or switch. So far we describe bus topology, now let’s look at the advantages And disadvantages of a Bus Topology.
