A method for distributing information includes: receiving, at a replicator, a single data stream originating from a data source where the single data stream includes a first plurality of data units from the data source; replicating, by the replicator, the single data stream to obtain a first replicated data stream and a second replicated data stream; adding a delay between the first plurality of data units in the single data stream before replicating the single data stream; transmitting the first replicated data stream to a first data recipient using a first communication channel; and transmitting the second replicated data stream to a second data recipient using a second communication channel. The replication of the single data stream is performed by a lower layer device to obtain the first replicated data stream and the second replicated data stream substantially synchronously.
