 Mesh Topology – all the computers are inter-connected to each other in a network. Each computer not only sends its own signals but also relays data from other computers. This type of topology is very expensive as Its very difficult to establish the connections of the mesh topology. In a Mesh topology every node has a point-to-point connection to the other node. The connections in the mesh topology can be wired or wireless.

Advantages of Mesh topology

1) Data can be transmitted from different devices simultaneously. This topology can withstand high traffic.
2) Even if one of the components fails there is always an alternative present. So data transfer doesn’t get affected.

3) Expansion and modification in topology can be done without disrupting other nodes.

Disadvantages of Mesh topology

1) There are high chances of redundancy in many of the network connections.
2) Overall cost of this network is way too high as compared to other network topologies.
3) Set-up and maintenance of this topology is very difficult. Even administration of the network is tough.
