Consider a network link that has distance of 100 meters, and signal traverses at the speed of light in cable 2.5 x 10^8 meters per second. The link has transmission bandwidth of 100 megabits/second (100 x 10^6 bits per second). The packet size is 400 bits. What is the packet transmission delay?

The link has transmission bandwidth of 100 megabits/second (100 x 10^6 bits per second).
The packet size is 400 bits
as packet size is much lesser than bandwidth so there will not be any wait period.
delay Time = Distance/Speed
=> Delay Time = 100/(2.5 * 10⁸) = 40 * 10⁻⁸ Sec
= 40 * 10⁻² * 10⁻⁶ sec
= 0.4 μsec
0.4 μsec is the packet transmission delay
