Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jitter refers to the variation in delay of packets during transmission. This can result in periods of silence, overlapping voice signals, and poor call quality. Latency refers to the delay between the time a sound is produced and when it is heard by the recipient, and is not typically associated with periods of silence mixed with overlapped voice signals. Fragmentation refers to the breaking up of packets into smaller pieces, and overrun refers to situations where more data is being sent than can be handled by the receiving device, neither of which are directly related to the user perceiving periods of silence mixed with overlapped voice signals.
