TREE TOPOLOGY, MESH TOPOLOGY, SYNCHRONOUS DAN ASYNCHRONOUS

TREE TOPOLOGY

Also known as a star bus topology, tree topology is one of the most common types of network setups that is similar to a bus topology and a star topology. A tree topology connects multiple star networks to other star networks.

MESH TOPOLOGY

A type of network setup where each of the computers and network devices are interconnected with one another, allowing for most transmissions to be distributed, even if one of the connections go down. This type of topology is not commonly used for most computer networks as it is difficult and expensive to have redundant connection to every computer. However, this type of topology is commonly used for wireless networks.

SYNCHRONOUS

A communication transmission where the data is transferred in regular intervals.

ASYNCHRONOUS

Also known as a start/stop transmission, asynchronous is a type of data transmission where the communication can start and stop at any time. Data sent through an asynchronous transmission contains a start bit and stop bit, helping the receiving end know when it has received all of its data.
