Best Answer

A collision domain is a physical network segment where data packets can collide with one another when being sent on a shared medium.

A group of Ethernet or Fast Ethernet devices in a CSMA/CD LAN that are connected by repeaters and compete for access on the network. Only one device in the collision domain may transmit at any one time, and the other devices in the domain listen to the network in order to avoid data collisions.

A collision domain is sometimes referred to as an Ethernet segment.
