Network Latency

The time difference between expected signal arrival and actual signal arrival times is called latency. It happens because of processing delays that happen inside network equipment. It is important to know magnitude and consistency of the latency. Modern applications require low latency for higher performance due to higher communication to computation ratio than in older applications. Low latency is essential to financial applications; high latency would create delay which might result in revenue loss. Evolving network traffic gets more latency-sensitive with introduction of cloud services. Design of the network, number of equipment and nodes between two servers, all that affects consistency of latency.

Testimonials

Lomoveishiy – Finland

I needed those to connect my PC on the third floor to have internet access in that room, and ISP installed their modem on the first floor only. After dropping fiber patch cables, plugged in all cables into these media converters at both sides, and link came up instantly. Was much easier than I thought!

Raymond – USA

Great experience – units worked straight out of the box – just needed plug in cables and we were done. I also like the possibility to enable jumbo frames, while we do not have a need for this feature at the current moment it’s great to have this option.
