In a network using carrier sense, each frame must be long enough so that a collision or jam signal may be detected by the transmitting station while this frame is being transmitted. Its minimum length is therefore determined by the round-trip propagation time. 1, record 1, English, - round%2Dtrip%20propagation%20time

Dans un réseau utilisant la détection de porteuse, chaque trame doit être assez longue pour que la station émettrice puisse détecter une éventuelle collision ou un éventuel signal de bourrage, pendant la transmission de cette trame. Sa longueur minimale est donc déterminée par le temps de propagation d'aller-retour. 1, record 1, French, - temps%20de%20propagation%20d%27aller%2Dretour
