Point-to-multipoint Ethernet networks involve data transmissions between one sender and multiple receivers. Point-to-multipoint communications can be either wired or wireless and involve communication among multiple parties.
In this point-to-multipoint Ethernet network example, one sender is transmitting data signals to multiple receivers, also referred to as multiple parties. Radio and television broadcasting is one type of a point-to-multipoint communication, where data is transmitted from one node to multiple endpoints.
