Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The telephone system is a circuit-switched network, meaning that a dedicated circuit (or connection) is established between two parties for the duration of the call. This is different from a packet-switched network, where data is broken up into packets and sent over a shared network. Peer-to-peer, wireless, and client/server networks are other types of network architectures that differ from the telephone system.
