LAN-Local Area Network<\/h2>\n

\n
• LAN is a group of computers connected to each other in a small area such as house, office, buildings.<\/li>\n
• Local Area Network is used for connecting two or more personal computers through a communication medium such as coaxial cable, twisted pair, etc.<\/li>\n
• Its cost is less as it is built with inexpensive hardware such\u00a0as network adapters, hubs, and ethernet cables.<\/li>\n
• In LAN\u00a0data is transferred at an extremely faster rate\u00a0and provides higher security.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  PAN-Personal Area Network<\/h2>\n

  \n
  • PAN is a network arranged within an individual person, typically within a range of 10 meters.<\/li>\n
  • PAN is used for connecting the computer devices of personal use.<\/li>\n
  • Personal computer devices are used to develop the personal area network are the media player, laptop, play stations and mobile phones and it covers an area of\u00a030 feet<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    MAN-Metropolitan Area Network<\/h2>\n

    \n
    • MAN is a network that covers a larger geographic area by interconnecting a different LAN to form a larger network.<\/li>\n
    • MAN is used by government agencies to connect to the private industries and citizens.<\/li>\n
    • It is higher range than LAN and most widely used protocols are ATM, ADSL, Frame Relay, RS-232, OC-3, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      WAN-Wide Area Network<\/h2>\n

      \n
      • A WAN is a network that extends over a large geographical area such as countries or states.<\/li>\n
      • It is not limited to a single location, but it spans over a large geographical area through a fiber optic cable, telephone line or satellite links.<\/li>\n
      • It is quite bigger network than the LAN and\u00a0widely used in the field of education, Business and government.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
