Which term is the broad descriptor for data communication structure?

• A. Network
• B. Ine
• C. Adns
• D. Antenna

Answer: (A)

Data communication structure is defined by how devices connect and share data, which is described by a network. A network is the umbrella term for the arrangement of nodes (computers, printers, servers, etc.) and the communication links (wired or wireless) that allow data to move between them. It also encompasses the rules and methods that govern data transfer, such as protocols and routing, and can include different topologies and access methods. An antenna, while essential for wireless transmission, is just a hardware component within a wireless link, not the overall structure. The other terms aren’t standard descriptors for the data communication framework, so they don’t fit as the broad descriptor.
