What central connection box is used in Ethernet star bus networks?
A) Switch
B) Transceiver
C) MAUS
D) Gateway

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ethernet star bus networks use a switch as the central connection box to connect various devices in the network. Switches are responsible for forwarding data packets between devices on the network and ensuring that the data reaches the intended recipient.

B) Transceiver 
 A transceiver is a device used to transmit and receive data over a network. While transceivers may be used in Ethernet star bus networks, they are not the central connection box used to connect devices in the network.

C) MAUS 
 A MAU (Media Attachment Unit) is a device used to connect devices to a Token Ring network, not an Ethernet star bus network.

D) Gateway 
 A gateway is a device used to connect two or more different networks, such as connecting an Ethernet network to a Wi-Fi network. While gateways may be used in Ethernet star bus networks to connect them to other networks, they are not the central connection box used to connect devices in the Ethernet star bus network itself.
