network topology in which all traffic goes through a central hub. Most wireless networks are star networks.
A network in which all stations are connected through a single point.
A way of organizing computers in a network such that all nodes communicate with a central hub which routes messages to the proper recipient.
All devices are attached to a central hub in a star configuration.
A network in which all terminals are connected through a central point.
a set of three or more branches with one terminal of each connected at a common node to give the form of a star; also known as a Y connection
a extension of the tandem network configuration into two dimension
a network topology in which all computers and other devices are connected to a central host computer
type of local-area network where packets from one computer are taken to their destination via a router. Mentioned in: Network Communication. See also: bus network, token-ring network.
Larger mainframe and minicomputer systems. This links multiple computer systems through a central computer State transition diagram This diagram shows the sequences and variations of screens that can occur when the system user sits at the terminal.
A network that uses a host device connected directly to several other devices.
A network configuration in which each networked PC is connected to a central controller, or hub, with its own piece of cable.
A network topology with a central hub and a number of remote terminals. Each remote is connected to the hub by a point-to-point network.
Network configuration in which there is only one path between a central or controlling node and each endpoint node.
A local area network topology in which all computers and peripherals are attached to one central hub. Failure of one computer or peripheral does not affect the overall network, and thus this topology is suited for small-scale networks.
A network configuration in which each node is connected to a separate line, and all lines lead to the same central hub
A network in which traffic flows to and/or from a central hub or master earth station; links between any other pair of earth stations are always via the hub.
VSAT network consisting of a central hub and many remote stations. All the terminals can communicate with each other only through the hub in a double hop.
(Wireless) A network topology where all nodes are connected to a central node. This central node is responsible for gathering and distributing data among the other nodes. See Master/Slave.
network in which all terminals are connected through a single point, such as a star coupler or concentrator.
Star networks are one of the most common computer network topologies. In its simplest form, a star network consists of one central switch, hub or computer which acts as a router to transmit messages. If the central node is passive, the originating node must be able to tolerate the reception of an echo of its own transmission, delayed by the two-way transmission time (i.e. to and from the central node) plus any delay generated in the central node.
