These are types of switches used in networks. A packet-switched network moves data in separate units called packets which are then assembled to create the message. Circuit switched networks send continuously but require dedicated point-to-point connections.

Data transfer will be faster in circuit switching or packet switching?
Data transfer will be faster in packet switching providing the setup time in circuit switching is greater than the time required to send a packet. If not, that is setup time in circuit switching takes less time, then circuit switching is quicker.
Used to open and close a circuit?
A light switch
Packet switch and message switch?
packet switching can be considered an improvement over message switching.Similar to message switching,packet switching forwards data on first come first serve basis between nodes and no dedication connection is made (as it is done in circuit switching). But unlike message switching,packet switching puts an upper limit on the maximum size of the packet.If the packet size is greater than the maximum,it is segmented and then transmitted.Each segment has separate header which increases the overhead. But it reduces the average delays.Also in case of packet switching data is not stored for later transmission to a currently busy or inactive terminal.It just takes care of data transmission between nodes
What are the two methods of switching?
1. circuit switching 2. packet switching
How must an electrical switch be wired to function with a device?
So that when the switch is in the open position the circuit is open and electricity cannot complete the circuit. When the switch is closed it completes the circuit and electricity flows completing the circuit and powering the device.
The telephone system uses packet-switching technology where as the Internet uses circuit-switching technology?
telephone system uses packet switching because packet switching is reiable. In a packet switching when a packet(some part of total information) is lost then the packet can be retransmitted. But in case of circuit switching if any part of data is lost anytime then total data will be retransmitted. Again circuit swithing is more speedy with compare to packet switching.In order to increase the bit rate (more speed) circuit switch is prefered in Internet.

Data transfer will be faster in packet switching providing the setup time in circuit switching is greater than the time required to send a packet. If not, that is setup time in circuit switching takes less time, then circuit switching is quicker.
What does a push switch do in a circuit?
it starts a circuit by connecting the circuit and the initials are ptm and its a spdt switch
How do you wire a two-way switch?
read the instructions in the switch packet
What network technologies does not use circuit switching?
Packet Switching - Computer Communications (Digital)Circuit Switching was used for old fashioned telephony. At present, many companies use VOIP (Packet Switching) for voice communications.
What happened when you turned on the switch of the light?
A switch is placed in an electrical circuit in order to place a gap when the switch is off, so the circuit is broken. When the switch is on, the circuit is complete and the electricity can flow round the circuit.
When a switch in an electrical circuit is turned off what will happen?
Closing a switch in an electrical circuit will complete the circuit. The supply voltage will then be applied to that circuit, and current will flow through that circuit.
Does Ethernet use circuit switching?
No, Ethernet is packet switched.
Where can i place the switch in the lemon circuit?
Not sure what you mean with "lemon circuit", but in an electrical circuit, the switch can be just about anywhere.
When the switch is closed it means that?
There is a complete path for the electricity to flow. The opposite of an open circuit. If a light switch is on and the light comes on, the circuit is closed. If the switch is turned off, the light goes off because the circuit is open.
What is meant by PSDN?
Packet Switch Data Network
What does a switch do in a curcuit?
A switch can create a gap in a circuit causing the circuit to turn on or off!
