  2. Bus network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_network

    In a bus network, every station will receive all network traffic, and the traffic generated by each station has equal transmission priority. [3] A bus network forms a single network segment and collision domain. In order for nodes to share the bus, they use a medium access control technology such as carrier-sense multiple access (CSMA) or a bus ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_bus_network

    Token Bus was standardized by IEEE standard 802.4. It was mainly used for industrial applications. Token Bus was used by General Motors for their Manufacturing Automation Protocol (MAP) standardization effort. [4] This differs from Token Ring networks in that the endpoints of the bus do not meet to form a physical ring.

  8. Tree network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_network

    A tree topology, or star-bus topology, is a hybrid network topology in which star networks are interconnected via bus networks. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Tree networks are hierarchical, and each node can have an arbitrary number of child nodes.

  9. Network interface controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_interface_controller

    The network controller implements the electronic circuitry required to communicate using a specific physical layer and data link layer standard such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi. [a] This provides a base for a full network protocol stack, allowing communication among computers on the same local area network (LAN) and large-scale network communications through routable protocols, such as Internet ...
