What is the difference between concentration camps and satellite camps?

Some of the main camps (Stammlager) had several satellite camps. These were usually smaller labour camps away from the main camp. Remember that by about 1940 the SS to some extent saw itself as a business entreprise, hiring out very cheap labour ... So, they had satellite camps at several workplaces and projects. Conditions at satellite camps varied: at some they were as bad or even worse than at the main camps, at others they were a little better. Many of the smaller satellite camps were temporary. Once the project was complete, the camp was dissolved and the inmates were sent elsewhere. At all satellite camps, the inmates were kept out of view of ordinary German workers and they were still subject to supervision by the SS.
