Abstract: There are provided a clock node, a controller, a method of operating the clock node and a method of operating the controller in a time distribution network (TDN) comprising the controller being in data communication with the clock nodes via a control path. The method of operating the clock node comprises: sending, from the clock node via the control path to the controller, a first timestamp-related data; receiving, by the clock node via the control path from the controller, clock-recovery control data generated by the controller using the first timestamp-related data received from the clock node; processing the received clock-recovery control data to extract data usable for phase and frequency recovery; and using the extracted data to steer frequency and phase characterizing the clock node.
