Q

Nodes in an Ethernet network are interconnected using a cable making a "Home Run"back to the central:

🔍 Key Concepts

• Home run cabling in network topologies • Difference between a central concentration point/device vs. an individual computer • Role of a router, backbone, and hub/switch in a basic Ethernet LAN

💭 Think About

• In a simple Ethernet LAN, which device do individual cables from each node usually plug into? • Is a "backbone" typically a single device you plug directly into, or more of a high‑capacity link between parts of a network? • Does each user device usually have its own cable run to another user device, or to a shared central device?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option represents a central physical connection point for multiple Ethernet cables • Confirm which option is not usually the endpoint of a dedicated cable from every node • Eliminate any device that is normally an end user node rather than an infrastructure device
