Tree topology combines characteristics of star and bus topologies by connecting multiple star networks to a linear backbone cable. This allows networks to be expanded while meeting individual school needs. Logically, it is a star-bus topology where central nodes of stars are connected. Physically, it uses point-to-point wiring for segments. Advantages include point-to-point wiring and vendor support, while disadvantages are limited segment length, loss of entire segment if backbone breaks, and more difficult configuration than other topologies.

10 – Einstein Ms. Camille


Assignment in TLE
1. What is TREE TOPOLOGY?
 tree topology combines characteristics of linear bus and star topologies. It consists of groups of star-
configured workstations connected to a linear bus backbone cable (See fig. 3). Tree topologies allow for
the expansion of an existing network, and enable schools to configure a network to meet their needs.

2. Physical and Logical topology of TREE.


 Logical
- In computer networks, a tree topology is also known as a star bus topology. It incorporates elements
of both a bus topology and a star topology. Below is an example network diagram of a tree topology,
in which the central nodes of two-star networks are connected to one another. In the picture above, if
the main cable or trunk between each of the two-star topology networks were to fail, those networks
would be unable to communicate with each other. However, computers on the same star topology
would still be able to communicate.

 Physical

3. Give the ff:


 Advantages
- Point-to-point wiring for individual segments.
- Supported by several hardware and software venders.

 Disadvantages
- Overall length of each segment is limited by the type of cabling used.
- If the backbone line breaks, the entire segment goes down.
- More difficult to configure and wire than other topologies.
