You have 10 users plugged into a hub running 10Mbps half-duplex. There is a server connected to the switch running 10Mbps half-duplex as well. How much bandwidth does each host have to the server?
100 kbps
1 Mbps
2 Mbps
10 Mbps
Answer: Option

Bandwidth sharing on the hub

Since the hub runs at 10 Mbps total, that 10 Mbps is shared between all users.
So, if only one user is communicating with the server → they can get the full 10 Mbps.
But if all 10 users try to communicate at the same time → the bandwidth is divided.
That means each user would get approximately 1 Mbps.

Half-duplex allows data to be sent in one direction at a time, while full-duplex will enable data to be sent in both-directions simultaneously.

The hub acts as a central juncture point" all the devices connected to it will divide their bandwidth between all connected devices (as long as they are configured properly, this is automatic). If a hub is placed in a situation where it is one of many similar networks in the area, and its port is then used to connect to another network (say, a wireless router or switch), every computer attached to that hub will have half of its speed dedicated to communicating with the other hosts (or hubs) on the second network.

What is mean by half - duplex? Explain it. And what is the difference between full - duplex and half - duplex?

Hub sends traffic for all node so bandwidth is divided 10 mbps to 1 mbps each node.

And switch creates MAC Table so send traffic to one node to check specific node MAC address and then after sending traffic so 10 mbps speed to access node also 10 mbps.

Switch provides the bandwidth of 10mbps to each node however hub divides it to 10 users by 1 mbps.

So when switch is connected to server, bandwidth from each host to the server will be 10 mbps i.e. Hub provide 1mbps to PC but switch provide 10 mbps to server.

It is shared access CSMA/CD. Since only one person can successfully transmit at one time, it is still 10 mb.
