Cell switching is similar to packet switching; the difference is that with packet-switched networks, the size of the units of data being sent (called frames) is variable. Cell-switched units (cells) are of a constant size. This makes dealing with heavy traffic loads easier and more efficient. Cell-switched solutions such as Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) tend to be big, fast, and robust.
