¿Qué es Route factor?

Definition 10.4 Networks, Hardware and Trading Infrastructure · Capítulo 10 — The North American Map

The route factor of a route is its published or measured one-way latency divided by the latency floor, in the route’s own medium, between its end points. A route factor of 1 is a route along the geodesic with no equipment; everything else is above 1.
