CompTIA DataX (CNX-001) — Question 70

A network architect is designing a new network for a rural hospital system. Given the following requirements:

Highly available -

Consistent data transmission -
Resilient to simultaneous failures
Which of the following topologies should the architect use?

Answer options

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The mesh topology is the best choice as it provides multiple pathways for data transmission, ensuring high availability and resilience against simultaneous failures. In contrast, the collapsed core, hub-and-spoke, and star topologies do not offer the same level of redundancy and fault tolerance necessary for the hospital's requirements.
