← TechnologyWhich communication latency results when excessive Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) slots are allocated?
A)Increased queuing and propagation✓
B)Reduced bandwidth utilization
C)Elevated signal-to-noise ratio
D)Duplication of signal packets
💡 Explanation
Increased latency occurs because the TDM mechanism assigns fixed time slots, exceeding demand; unused slots still delay subsequent signals. Therefore, queuing rises, and processing lags, rather than noise or bandwidth driving the outcome.
