A network engineer is investigating reports of poor network performance. Upon reviewing a report, the engineer finds that jitter at the office is greater than 10ms on the only WAN connection available. Which of the following would be MOST affected by this statistic?
Jitter refers to the variation in packet arrival times and is a critical factor in real-time communications such as VoIP calls, where consistent delivery of packets is essential for maintaining call quality. A jitter greater than 10ms can cause noticeable disruptions in audio communication, leading to poor voice quality or even call drops. On the other hand, in-office video calls (option B) could potentially buffer to compensate for jitter, though they would also be affected. Routing tables from the ISP (option C) and firewall CPU processing time (option D) are not directly influenced by jitter. Therefore, a VoIP sales call with a customer would be MOST affected by this statistic.
keyword WAN , since the voip call is with a customer, it is out of office using the WAN
Both A and B will be affected. A is my choice since the question ask which will be 'MOST' affected.
Also, it would be affecting a call with a customer. In businesses, the “bottom line” is the most important.
A. A VoIP sales call with a customer would be MOST affected by the jitter of greater than 10ms on the only WAN connection available. Jitter, or variation in delay, can negatively impact the quality of real-time communication services such as VoIP.
I felt for this one and picked B. However, the correct answer is A)
A is the correct answer.
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) performance optimization can help a business improve the quality of its video and audio communications over the Internet by decreasing the size of the broadcast domain through the creation of VLANs. Each VLAN can contain the VoIP devices for a single department or business unit, and traffic is routed between the VLANs using layer 3 multilayer switches to increase the performance of the voice communication systems.
you copy and paste from chatgpt without explaining anything AND most of your replies are wrong
so if its A what is the solution to this question?
I think the solution would be to adjust the Quality of Service or QoS settings to prioritize VoIP according to the Network+ textbook I have.
Both A n B will be ffected
