transfer time

Connection waiting period

Transfer time is the duration required to move something from one place or state to another.

In computing, it measures how long data takes to travel between devices or across a network: The transfer time for large files depends on your connection speed.

In transportation and logistics, it refers to time spent moving goods or passengers between points or modes of transit.
