1. Data Communications: Data Communication is defined as the exchange of data between two devices via some form of transmission media such as a cable, wire or it can be air, or vacuum also. For the occurrence of data communication, communicating devices must be part of a communication system made up of a combination of hardware or software devices and programs.
Data Communications
2. Telecommunication Nodes: Telecommunication Nodes are the nodes connected in the telephone networks which might be used privately or publicly to communicate with one another.
3. Cable TV Network Nodes: Nodes in cable TV Network Devices basically deals with the Fibre Optics cables, which are connected in homes and business areas.
4. Distributed Network Devices: Distributed network nodes are the nodes that are distributed among servers and clients.
5. LANs & WANs: LAN & WAN are used to perform actions. Here, for every Network Interface Card, we require a MAC Address.
Types of Node Devices in a Computer Network: End devices and Intermediary Devices
