A metropolitanarea network (MAN) is a large computer network that usually spans a cityor a large campus. A MAN usually interconnects a number of local areanetworks (LANs) using a high-capacity backbone technology, such asfiber-optical links, and provides up-link services to wide area networksand the Internet. The IEEE 802-2001 standard describes a MAN as being:'A MAN is optimized for a larger geographical area than a LAN, rangingfrom several blocks of buildings to entire cities. MANs can also dependon communications channels of moderate-to-high data rates. A MAN mightbe owned and operated by a single organization, but it usually will beused by many individuals and organizations. MANs might also be owned andoperated as public utilities. They will often provide means forinternetworking of local networks.'VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 72 pp. Englisch. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9786131665257
