Description

WAN and MAN are integral components of modern networking, serving distinct yet complementary roles. The Wide Area Network (WAN) acts as the backbone of the information superhighway, characterized by its structured network performance influenced by various factors such as transmission capacity, stability, security, and core network capabilities. It ensures a reliable and efficient data transfer across vast distances.

On the other hand, the Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) serves as a versatile service network, providing an array of functionalities including voice, data, multimedia, and IP access. It connects local operators’ WANs and offers value-added services like VPNs and intelligent services. The MAN encompasses different layers of the network including transmission, core, distribution, and access layers, facilitating seamless connectivity within metropolitan areas.
