Marseille, France to Singapore ICMP RTT measurement: average round-trip time, latency jitter, packet loss and route statistics for round 2026-08-15T04:03:13Z

🇫🇷 Marseille, France (MRS) → 🇸🇬 Singapore (SIN)

Measurement round: 2026-08-15T04:03:13Z.

In round 2026-08-15T04:03:13Z, 50 ICMP echo requests sent from Marseille, France to Singapore, Singapore at 100 ms intervals produced an average round-trip time of 138.5 ms, with a minimum of 133.98 ms and a maximum of 152.92 ms. The standard deviation of 3.93 ms and jitter of 3.61 ms point to a stable path, and zero packet loss reinforces the Good latency tier.

Over the 10,598.5 km great-circle distance, the theoretical two-way vacuum floor is 70.71 ms, rising to 103.79 ms when practical fiber delay is factored in. The measured average is 1.33 times the fiber floor, or 74.9% fiber efficiency, meaning the route largely tracks the physical separation between the two hubs.

Within the 19 Marseille-originating routes in this round, this path ranked 10th, and the median standard-deviation-to-average ratio across the measured set was 3.08 percent. That mid-pack position combined with very low variation makes this route a clean reference for France-to-Southeast Asia latency.

Ping Measurement Series

The chart below renders the 50-sample ICMP echo measurement round for this route; an accessible table of every sample is included with the chart.

Ping series: MRS → SIN

50 ICMP echo samples at 100 ms intervals · round 2026-08-15T04:03:13Z · avg 138.5 ± 0.56 ms (SE)

Sample distribution: box = interquartile range (136.0–139.7 ms), median 137.2 ms · whiskers = min–max · diamond = round average · each dot is one measured sample.

How to read this chart

The shaded band spans the measured minimum to maximum RTT of all samples collected up to that point, and the thin line traces the running average. The final position therefore matches the round statistics exactly — the band only widens when a new extreme sample arrives.

The dashed line is the round average, and the shaded band at the bottom is the theoretical fiber-optic floor (103.8 ms) for this route.

Theoretical Fiber Latency

The public physical reference uses the GeoNames city centres for Marseille (43.29695, 5.38107) and Singapore (1.28967, 103.85007). It does not disclose either facility address.

Physical Reference	Value
WGS-84 geodesic distance	10,598.5 km
Vacuum RTT floor	70.71 ms
Standard fiber RTT floor ( $n_g=1.4679$ )	103.79 ms
Low-latency fiber material floor	103.37 ms
Engineering floor (5% path allowance)	108.99 ms
Research 1.33× mapped-fiber reference	138.04 ms
Estimated unamplified path loss	2225.7 dB
Transparent optical spans / inline amplifiers	140 / 139
Published RTT inflation over fiber floor	1.33×

Attenuation is used to estimate the number of 80 km optical spans; it does not directly slow light. See the full theoretical fiber latency, GeoNames, attenuation, and amplifier methodology.

About This Measurement

Published RTT reflects best-case backbone path behavior measured with ICMP echo probes between PoPs. End-user latency also depends on local access networks, congestion, routing policy, and traffic engineering. None of these values is an SLA.
