Star Configuration
Wire your network in a star configuration using an ONline System Concentrator as the central point in the network. Wiring in a star topology configuration has two major benefits:
❑Faults in the cable plant affect only a piece of the network
❑You can easily expand the size of your network.
Figure 2-3 shows an example of a Star-wired configuration..
