Different Characteristics of Switching System


There are different characteristics of circuit switching and packet switching. There characteristics are as follows:

Characteristics of circuit switching:

1. Need 64 Kbps channel for voice transmission.
2. 8 Kbps used for framing, so uses bandwidth is 56 Kbps. 3.Circuit switching support analog and digital signals at a time. 4. 24 dso (Every digital signal channel is known as dso) make 1 multi channel trunk.


Characteristics of  Packet switching:

1. Message broken into smaller unites or packets. 2. Source and destination address in packet header. 3. Connectionless, packets routed independently. 4. Packet may arrive out of order.
