How the calculation works
Throughput is multiplied by round-trip time to estimate the data needed in flight to fill the path.
Formula
Throughput is multiplied by round-trip time to estimate the data needed in flight to fill the path.
Step-by-step calculation
- Enter the labelled values and review the live result.
- Throughput is multiplied by round-trip time to estimate the data needed in flight to fill the path.
- Check the displayed result, then copy it if needed.
Worked example
