The present disclosure discloses a system including a controller and a plurality of radio heads communicatively coupled to the controller. The controller transmits a synchronization signal to each of the radio heads to synchronize the local clocks in the radio heads to a master clock in the controller. The controller also transmits packets to the radio heads. Each of the radio heads includes a deframer. For a radio head, upon detecting that a received packet from the controller includes an error, the deframer alters the received packet to maintain the synchronization between the controller and the radio head and transmits data contained within the altered packet.
