1. Hybrid Topology Hybrid network topology is a combination of two or more different basic network topologies.  For example, it can be star-ring, star-bus topologies, etc . if in an office in one department ring topology is used and in another star topology is used, connecting these topologies will result in Hybrid Topology (ring topology and star topology).

2. Representation of Hybrid

3. Features of Hybrid Topology It is a combination of two or topologies Inherits the advantages and disadvantages of the topologies included

4. Advantages of Hybrid Topology Reliable :as Error detecting and trouble shooting is easy . Effective: The most important advantage of this topology is that the weakness of the different topologies connected are disregarded and only the strengths are taken into consideration. For instance, ring topology has good data reliability and star topology has high tolerance capability, so these two function quite well in hybrid star-ring topology .

5. Flexible: One of the key advantages of this topology is its flexibility. The topology is created, so that it can be implemented for a variety of distinct network environment. Hybrid Network can be created in line with the demands of the corporation and by maximizing the available resources . Scalable: Hybrid networks are built in a fashion which enables for easy integration of new hardware components like additional concentration points. It’s quite simple to extend the size of network with the addition of new elements, without disturbing existing architecture.

6. Disadvantages of Hybrid Topology Complex in design. Costly.
