In this episode, we look at two of the most critical performance metrics in networking: bandwidth and latency. You'll learn how bandwidth defines the maximum data capacity of a connection, while latency refers to the delay in communication between endpoints. These metrics directly impact how users experience the network, especially for time-sensitive applications like VoIP or gaming.

We also discuss related terms like throughput, jitter, and packet loss, explaining how each one affects the overall performance of a network. By the end of this episode, you’ll be able to identify performance issues more precisely and interpret the numbers you see in monitoring tools.
