plesiochronous
Nearly synchronised, a term describing a communication system where transmitted signals have the same nominal digital rate but are synchronised on different clocks.
According to ITU-T standards, corresponding signals are plesiochronous if their significant instants occur at nominally the same rate, with any variation in rate being constrained within specified limits. [Pronunciation? /ples'ee-oh-kroh'nus/?]Last updated: 1995-03-02
