1. A method for synchronising data output in networks, wherein at least one data stream is transmitted by a network unit to at least two output units of the network and is output by at least part of the output units,whereina global time information is at least provided periodically to the at least two output units, and on the at least two output units the global time is approximated by evaluating:

  • of the global time information and of a local time information, which is provided by a hardware clock of each of the at least two output units, and where the local time information is the instant of time on which the global time information was received by the respective at least two output units,of the length of time cycles of the global and local clock, andof the duration of transmission of the global time information from the unit, which provides the global time information, to the at least two output units, where the duration of transmission is determined by taking into account a variance in transfer time between the unit, which provides the global time information, and the at least two output units, andoutput of the data of the data stream is synchronised, at least with regard to phase and/or frequency, on the basis of the approximated global time information.
