physical map
it is the physical & logical arringment is called topology
physical topology support multiple logical topology because quality and speed of cable wires effect efficiency of network
look on google gosh
SONET use RING physical topology and TOKEN logical topology. As simple as that. Logical topology deals with the data transmission. Physical topology deals with how the network is connected physically , BUS, RING, STAR and the like.
