Measurement round: 2026-08-15T04:03:13Z.
This page provides round-trip time (RTT) latency metrics between the Sydney (SYD) PoP and every other node on the Hats Network (AS203314) global backbone.
Average RTT from Sydney to every other PoP
Round average of 19 measured routes, sorted slowest first · whiskers mark ±1 standard deviation within each round
How to read this chart
Each bar is the average round-trip time of one 50-probe ICMP echo round from Sydney (SYD) to the destination PoP. The whisker at the end of each bar spans the average ± one standard deviation of that round — long whiskers mark jittery routes, short whiskers mark stable ones.

RTT vs. distance from Sydney
Average RTT against great-circle distance for the same 19 routes · shaded bands mark latency tiers · points are colored by continent
How to read this chart
Each point is one destination PoP: the horizontal axis is the measured average RTT, the vertical axis is the WGS-84 great-circle distance from Sydney. Points close to the bottom-left are routes that run near the physical fiber limit; points drifting upward-right follow longer paths. The shaded vertical bands mark the latency tiers (Ultra-Low <30 ms, Low 30–80 ms, Mid 80–150 ms, High >150 ms).

Fastest routes into Sydney
Measured RTT from 19 other PoPs into Sydney (SYD), sorted fastest first · each row spans min–max with a dot at the average
How to read this chart
Each row is one 50-probe ICMP echo round from another PoP into Sydney (SYD): the line spans the minimum to maximum round-trip time observed, and the dot marks the average. Short rows are stable routes; rows sitting far right are slow ones. RTT is not symmetric — the path back into Sydney can differ from the outbound path shown in the charts above.
