Point to Point Link
Basically, a Point-to-Point or P-P link relies upon two functions, transmit and receive.
The main characteristics of point to point network is that each station receives exactly from one transmitter, and each transmitter transmits to exactly one receiver.
The transmit and receive operations can occur over separate wires for better performance or they can take turns over the same wire using a variety of techniques.
