Bandwidth, throughput, and latency are distinct network performance measures. A low-bandwidth link has less capacity to carry data at once, causing queuing delays that increase overall network latency. Latency itself is a time-delay measurement and does not reduce a link's physical bandwidth capacity, so higher latency does not decrease bandwidth. Latency does, however, constrain throughput - the actual amount of data moved in a given time - so decreasing latency allows more data to be transferred per unit of time, increasing throughput.
