Which statement correctly defines latency, throughput, and jitter and their measurement methods?

• A. Latency is data rate; Throughput is time to first byte; Jitter is variation in latency.
• B. Latency equals BER; Throughput equals latency; Jitter equals packet rate.
• C. Latency is the time for a packet to travel; Throughput is the data transfer rate; Jitter is variation in latency. Measured with ping/traceroute for latency, traffic generators for throughput, RTT variance for jitter.
• D. Latency and throughput are the same metric; Jitter cannot be measured.

Answer: (C)
