What is an advantage of packet-switching technology over circuit-switching technology?

  • Packet-switched networks are less susceptible to jitter than circuitswitched networks.
  • Packet-switched networks can efficiently use multiple routes inside a service provider network.
  • Packet-switched networks require an expensive permanent connection to each endpoint.
  • Packet-switched networks usually experience lower latency than circuit-switched networks experience.

Explanation: Unlike circuit-switched networks, which typically require expensive permanent connections, packet-switched networks can take alternate paths, if available, to reach the destination.
