Continuance in quality level of an input timing signal

Abstract:

Continuance in quality level of an input timing signal may be provided. Clock source reference timing information may be receive by a first node from a second node as an input. The first node may be downstream from the second node. Then the first node may receive an event message associated with a future event associated with the second node. The first node may then refrain, for a period of time in response to receiving the event message, from switching the input for clock source reference timing information to a source other than the second node.
