Teams retain the same table throughout so only the EW pairs move. Less congestion, everyone has a home table to leave their stuff at and every team has a stationary position for one of their pairs. Minor downsides are that you can't tell who is doing well by looking at the room (need to look at a ranking list) and if you happen to play against a team positioned nearby you might want one table to relocate for the match to avoid overhearing what's happening. As Stefanie indicated, it needs duplicated boards because you won't usually play the same physical set as the other table in the match.
