Why is mesh topology considered more expensive and complex compared to star or bus topologies?
hard📝 Conceptual Q10 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand mesh topology wiring
Mesh requires a direct link between every pair of devices, increasing cables and ports.Step 2: Compare with star and bus topologies
Star uses one central device; bus uses one cable; mesh needs many connections, raising cost and complexity.Final Answer:
Because it requires many direct connections between devices -> Option DQuick Check:
Mesh cost = many direct connections [OK]
Quick Trick: More connections mean more cost and complexity [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Confusing mesh with star or bus wiring
- Thinking mesh uses a central device
- Assuming mesh is a loop
