In general term Delay and latency are similar terms that refer to the amount of time it takes a bit to be transmitted from source to destination. Jitter is delay that varies over time. One way to view latency is how long a system holds on to a packet. That system may be a single device like a router, or a complete communication system including routers and links.

Latency is the total time from transmission to reception. It is composed of the sum of several delays:
• Propagation Delay - Total time needed to be transmitted over wires (negligible in most cases)
• Serialization Delay - A packet cannot be processed until all of it is in the receive buffer. That time is controlled by the link speed and the length of the packet: Delay = Speed of one octet * Total Octets. You can lower serialization delay by either passing them over faster links or shortening them. Compressed RTP (cRTP) can reduce a 40 byte IP/RTP/UDP header to 2 to 4 bytes
• Processing Delay - The amount of time, a packet sits in one device waiting to be passed on. Composed of:
• Decoding and Classifying - The more a packet has to be processed and the higher the level on the TCP/IP model, the longer it will take. Speed of the Processor can be a considerable factor
• Queuing Delay - When one packet has to wait behind another to be processed or transmitted. This is the basis for most Quality of Service (QOS) methods.
