Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Multistage Switch is made by splitting the crossbar switch into the smaller units and then interconnecting them. It reduces the number of crosspoints. If one path fails, then there will be an availability of another path.

Detailed explanation-2: -Since all the bandwidth can be used at once, packet switching is more efficient because it doesn’t have to deal with a limited number of connections that may not be using all that bandwidth.

Detailed explanation-3: -Advantages of packet switching over circuit switching: More efficient than circuit switching. Data packets are able to find the destination without the use of a dedicated channel. Reduces lost data packets because packet switching allows for resending of packets.
