Timing on Ethernet is as good as RS-232 if you have a point to point link rather than a huge network full of crappy software. I'd worry more about USB within the Prologix. It might be fun to do the experiment. Can you get a scope on one of the GPIB signals and something like a modem control signal on a PC that sends the packet? -- These are my opinions.
