Hi Sash, Could you provide with more details?

And that internal trigger generators are running independently, right? In this case if you sync them once an error will be accumulating.

What is the latency requirement? Is it a guy pushing a button or some sensor? What's the source of the initial trigger in general words? In case of a button it's much easier to send a command over the network - I guess that will not work for you for some reason. What is the scene/event being filmed?
