Synchronous Network
  • A network in which clocks are controlled so as to run, ideally, at identical rates, or at the same mean rate with limited but constant relative phase displacement. Note: Ideally, the clocks are synchronous, but they may be mesochronous in practice. By common usage, such mesochronous networks are frequently described as synchronous. See also clock, data transmission, synchronism.
