A multistation access unit (MSAU) is a networking device that connects multiple devices in a Token Ring network. The MSAU facilitates communication among these devices by controlling the passage of data packets, or tokens, around the network. By managing the token flow, MSAUs help maintain a reliable and efficient network, reducing the likelihood of data collisions and ensuring proper transmission and reception of data.
