Which of the following conditions occurs when two packets are transmitted over a medium at the same time?
- Collision
- Asynchronous
- Synchronous
- Contention
EXPLANATION
In a half duplex Ethernet network, a collision is the result of two devices on the same Ethernet network attempting to transmit data at exactly the same time.
The network detects the "collision" of the two transmitted packets and discards them both. Collisions are a natural occurrence on Ethernets.
