Which risk increases when using Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) over a communication channel with strict latency constraints?

💡 Explanation

Elevated clock skew risk increases because slight timing variations, due to propagation, impact the bit synchronization of TDM slots. This mechanism creates higher bit error rates for the distinct multiplexed channels, therefore clock skew risk rises rather than audio distortion/fragment size.
