Advantages of Hybrid Network Topology
- Very reliable and easy to detect the Faulty system.
- Troubleshooting is easy.
- It includes both wired and wireless network.
- It is an expandable network.
Disadvantages of Hybrid Topology
- Its design is difficult to understand.
- The cost of this network design is high, because of the requirement of a lot of cables, cooling systems, etc.
- MAU ( Multi-station Access Unit) is required.
