Option 3 : The wiring cost is less for large installations.
Star Topology in PLC connection:

- In a star topology, each device is connected by a point-to-point link to a central hub that acts as the single switching device.
- The communication processing load is on that central hub. When a device wants to transmit data, it first sends a request to the central hub asking for a connection to a specific destination.
- Once the link is set by the central hub, data is exchanged between the two devices as if they were connected on a point-to-point link.
- All nodes are dependent on the central node, hence failure of the central node will crash the network.
- The wiring cost of star topology is very large for a large installation.
