Abstract

Synchronization techniques for multiple clock domains from two or more clients or common pluggable interfaces connected to multiple interfaces on one or more ingress line cards to multiple interfaces on one or more egress line cards are provided. The plurality of clock domain information from the clients that are connected on the ingress side is transmitted to the egress line cards. Two or more egress interfaces generate different clocks that are synchronized to the multiple clock domains.
