(Or coNteNtioN period). MiNimum time a host must traNsmit for before it caN be sure that No other host' s packet has collided with its traNsmissioN. If the maximum propagatioN delay from oNe host to aNy other is T, theN a host that starts to traNsmit at time t0 may collide with a host that starts just before t0 + T. The first host will Not detect the collisioN uNtil time t0 + 2T.
