Jitter refers to the variability in time between data packets arriving, caused by network congestion, timing drift, or route changes. High levels of jitter can lead to packets being out of sequence, resulting in poor audio and video quality in streaming and VoIP applications. Understanding jitter is essential for network troubleshooting because it can severely affect the user experience and consistent data flow, which are critical in real-time communications.
