What are the differences between Connected and Unconnected Lookup

The differences are illustrated in the below table:

Connected LookupUnconnected Lookup
Connected lookup participates in dataflow and receives input directly from the pipelineUnconnected lookup receives input values from the result of a LKP: expression in another transformation
Connected lookup can use both dynamic and static cacheUnconnected Lookup cache can NOT be dynamic
Connected lookup can return more than one column value ( output port )Unconnected Lookup can return only one column value i.e. output port
Connected lookup caches all lookup columnsUnconnected lookup caches only the lookup output ports in the lookup conditions and the return port
Supports user-defined default values (i.e. value to return when lookup conditions are not satisfied)Does not support user defined default values
