Claim 8:
9. A system comprising:
a regeneration device configured to regenerate a first input signal having an inadequate signal-to-noise ratio and a first timestamp and to bypass a second input signal having an adequate signal-to-noise ratio and a second timestamp, without regenerating the second input signal; and
a central processing server, coupled to the regeneration device, and configured to obtain, from a delay tracking database, a first delay associated with a first signal path for the first input signal and a second delay associated with a second signal path for the second input signal, and to cause to be sent downstream the regenerated first input signal together with the first timestamp and the first delay, and the non-regenerated second input signal together with the second timestamp and the second delay.
