Metropolitan Area Network: A Metropolitan Area Network, or MAN, is a computer network that
spans a city, a college campus, or a small area. This network is much larger than a LAN, which is
usually restricted to a single building or location. This type of network can cover a range of
distances from a few miles to tens of miles, depending on the arrangement.
Example of Metropolitan Area Network:
• Cable TV network.
• Telephone networks providing high-speed DSL lines.
