Serialization Delay Calculator
Posted by Dinesh onCalculate time delay of data frame required for network interface using simple serialization delay calculator online.
Serialization delay (σn) is the fixed delay required to clock a voice or data frame onto the network interface. It is directly related to the clock rate on the trunk. At low clock speeds and small frame sizes, the extra flag needed to separate frames is significant.
Example Serialization Delays
| Packet Size | Link Size | Serialization Delay |
|---|---|---|
| 64 bytes | 256 Kbps | 2 ms |
| 1.5 Mbps | 0.35 ms | |
| 100 Mbps | 5.1 microseconds | |
| 1 Gbps | 0.51 microseconds | |
| 10 Gbps | 0.051 microseconds | |
| 1500 bytes | 256 Kbps | 46.98 ms |
| 1.5 Mbps | 8 ms | |
| 100 Mbps | 120 microseconds | |
| 1 Gbps | 12 microseconds | |
| 10 Gbps | 1.2 microseconds |
