Explanation:
The Access Layer is the one closer to the users. In fact, at this layer, we find the users themselves and the access-layer switches. The main purpose of this layer is to physically connect users to the network. In other words, there is just a cable between end-user PCs, printers, and wireless access points and access-layer switches.
