The CSMA/CD and CSMA/CA protocols are designed to manage which of the following:
A) low bandwidth.
B) conversion of data from digital to analog.
C) message collisions.
D) passing of token from one device to another.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

CSMA/CD and CSMA/CA protocols are designed to manage message collisions. CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) is used in wired networks, whereas CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) is used in wireless networks. Both protocols help in reducing the number of collisions and improving network efficiency. Option A is incorrect as these protocols do not manage low bandwidth. Option B is incorrect as these protocols are not designed for conversion of data from digital to analog. Option D is incorrect as passing of token from one device to another is managed by a different protocol, Token passing protocol.
