Mesh Topology

Unit: 1 Lesson: 1

everybody is plugged in with everyone else

For every node $n$ in the network, the mesh topology requires $\frac{n^2-n}{2}$ P2P links (e.g. network of 40 nodes requires 780 links). However, the redundancy can be helpful, since there are multiple routes data packets can take to reach the same destination should the direct link between two nodes fail.
