Which of the following network topologies would MOST likely be used to provide redundancy at each network device to support data transmissions?

The correct answer is A. Mesh. A mesh topology connects every device directly to every other device (full mesh) or to multiple devices (partial mesh), creating multiple redundant paths for data. If one link or node fails, traffic is automatically rerouted through an alternate path. Ring topology has a single…

Explanation

A mesh topology connects every device directly to every other device (full mesh) or to multiple devices (partial mesh), creating multiple redundant paths for data. If one link or node fails, traffic is automatically rerouted through an alternate path. Ring topology has a single path and is vulnerable to single-point failures. Bus topology shares a single cable with no redundancy. PBX is a private telephone switching system, not a network topology.
