Once you get below 1ms you need to pay attention to everything, including
ethernet switches.  For instance many 8 port switches consists of two
five-port chips connected back to back.  That means that the packet
delay inside a group is lower than between groups etc.

But 300µS uncalibrated is not unreasonable.   What you need to do is
calibrate against the PPS signal from your GPS.
