It seems that you're implying that nodes cannot be synchronized within the time it takes for light to travel between the nodes.

Images both nodes having their own atomic clocks. Now allow them to timestamp transmitted and received messages with very high precision.

In a white-rabbit network you don't need atomic clocks on each node. One atomic clock is enough, its frequency is distributed over the network.
