    Summary: The Wallman ordered compactification \(w_ 0X\) of a topological ordered space X is \(T_ 2\)-ordered (and hence equivalent to the Stone-Čech ordered compactification) iff X is a \(T_ 4\)-ordered c-space. In particular, these two ordered compactifications are equivalent when X is n-dimensional Euclidean space iff \(n\geq 2\). When X is a c-space, \(w_ 0X\) is \(T_ 1\)-ordered; we give conditions on X under which the converse statement is also true. We also find conditions on X which are necessary and sufficient for \(w_ 0X\) to be \(T_ 2\). Several examples provide further insight into the separation properties of \(w_ 0X\).
