Bus Topology:

Bus Topology:
The bus topology connects all the nodes on a network to a main cable called bus.
In the bus topology, each packet that is placed on the bus contains the address of the destination node and is transmitted in both directions along the bus.
A single high capacity cable is required thus requiring minimum cabling and its cost.
Entire cable setup needs to be reconfigured to add a node.
Time consuming process to troubleshoot as every point needs to be checked to locate the fault.
