Types of network

Types of network:

1. PAN - personal area network
2. CAN - campus area network
3. LAN - local area network
4. MAN - metropolitan area network
5. WAN - wide area network

PAN:

A personal area network is a computer area network used for data transmission among devices such as computers, modems, and printer.

LAN:

A local area network is a computer network that interconnects computers within a limited area such as home, school or organisation within a moderate sized geographical area. The speed of LAN is very fast.

CAN:

A campus area network is the network of multiple interconnected local area network in a limited geographical area.

MAN:

A metropolitan area network is a computer network that connects all the local area networks within a city. The speed of the man is medium

WAN:

it is a computer network covered in multiple distance area which spread across the entire world.

The speed of WAN is slow.

Serial cables speed up to =1.54 mbps

   Note:  We can increase speed of wan by binding serial cables
