LatenceTech: Innovating Network Tools

In the context of the evolving telecommunications industry, characterized by the emergence of 5G and a surge of connected devices in IoT, LatenceTech, founded in Montreal, Canada, by former Ericsson senior executive Benoit Gendron, identified a specific need for specialized network tools focusing on precise latency measurement.“This precision is essential for the functionality of applications such as autonomous vehicles and connected robotics. Current technologies, including Ping, ICMP, and even advanced protocols like TWAMP (co-developed by Cisco), still do not meet this requirement entirely.”To address this, Gendron’s team deployed monitoring agents into client networks, explicitly focusing on measuring and managing network latency. This approach extends traditional methods to a strategy that balances data analysis and performance optimization.The objective is to redefine performance metrics by emphasizing the quality of network experience rather than relying solely on conventional, quantitative data metrics.
