MAN
(Metropolitan Area Network)
A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is a network that spans a city or a large campus, providing connectivity over a larger geographic area than a local area network (LAN) but smaller than a wide area network (WAN).
MANs are typically used to connect multiple LANs within a city, enabling high-speed data transfer and resource sharing. They are often implemented using fiber optics or wireless technologies. MANs are essential for organizations with multiple locations in a metropolitan area, such as universities, government agencies, and large corporations.
