Propagation Delay Calculator

Propagation Delay Calculator

Calculate signal propagation delay over a given distance

Back to Calculator Suite
How it works: Enter the distance and signal speed to calculate the propagation delay. Useful for networking, fiber optics, and physics.

Tips

  • Speed of light (c) ≈ 299,792,458 m/s
  • Fiber optic cables: ~0.67c
  • Copper cables: ~0.59c
  • Propagation delay = distance / speed
