What are two characteristics of jitter in voice and video over IP communications? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. The packets arrive at varying time intervals B. The packets arrive out of sequence. Jitter in voice and video over IP communications is characterized by variations in packet arrival times and can lead to packets arriving out of their original sequence.

Why each option

Jitter in voice and video over IP communications is characterized by variations in packet arrival times and can lead to packets arriving out of their original sequence.

AThe packets arrive at varying time intervalsCorrect

Jitter is the variation in the delay of received packets, meaning that packets do not arrive at consistent or uniform time intervals, which can degrade the quality of real-time media streams.

BThe packets arrive out of sequenceCorrect

A direct consequence of packets arriving at varying time intervals due to jitter is that they may be received out of their original sending sequence at the destination, requiring a jitter buffer to reorder them.

CThe packets arrive with frame errors

Packets arriving with frame errors indicates data corruption, which is distinct from jitter, a phenomenon related to timing variability.

DThe packets arrive at uniform time intervals.

Packets arriving at uniform time intervals would indicate a perfectly stable network with no jitter, which is the opposite of a characteristic of jitter.

EThe packets never arrive due to tail drop

Packets never arriving due to tail drop is a characteristic of packet loss, where packets are discarded due to congestion, rather than jitter, which describes variations in their arrival timing.
