connection time

Time between flights

Connection time is the duration required to establish a link between systems or devices—how long it takes for a phone call to connect, a modem to handshake, or a computer to reach a server.

In telecommunications and networking, minimizing connection time improves user experience: The connection time was under two seconds.

It can also refer to the period during which a connection remains active.
