Let's consider a scenario where a file of $8000$ bits needs to be transmitted from a source

router $($Router A$)$ to a destination router $($Router B$).$ The network has a bandwidth of $2$

Mbps $($megabits per second$),$ and the propagation delay between the routers is $10$

milliseconds. Compare the latency in two cases: one using cut$-$through switching and the

other using store$-$and$-$forward switching. The maximum packet size that can be

transmitted is $1000$ bits. We define latency as the time at which the entire file is

transmitted by Router B to the application
