Networking Device and Protocols

2. Legacy Systems:

Still found in some older setups or niche environments where cost is a concern and performance isn’t critical.

Example: Connecting legacy industrial equipment in a factory.

Testing and Education:

Used in labs to demonstrate basic networking concepts or collision domains.

Example: Networking courses teaching Physical layer operations.

Temporary Networks:

Deployed in temporary setups (e.g., events) where simple connectivity is needed.

Example: Connecting multiple devices at a small conference booth.
