Abstract
A system and method for managing information communication in a network includes a plurality of network nodes. A plurality of circuit emulation data flows are established between a first network node and at least a second network node. Different data transmission rates are assigned to each circuit emulation data flow such that the frequency of communicated packets is different at least for each circuit emulation data flow used for timing recovery to make the plurality of circuit emulation data flows substantially independent of each other. For example, different frame rates can be assigned to synchronous backhaul transmission links such that the frequency of the backhaul transmission rates is substantially independent of the circuit emulation flow rates.
