In a star network all devices communicate through distributors. The advantage of such a star topo-
logy is that ‘local’ problems are contained and do not influence the entire network. Star networks
are very adequate for renovating projects where an existing intercom has to be exchanged. A star
network requires more cabling than a serial network.
