Metropolitan Area Network (MAN):
A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a computer network covering a large area like a campus, corporate offices or a city.
It is also used as the interconnection of several local area networks.
A MAN is often a high speed network and allows sharing of multiple resources.
Examples of MAN: Telephone company network that provides a high speed DSL to customers and cable TV network, branches of a nationalised bank in several cities connected together.
