Hi Shaun,
The 75nS is for non-cumlative bit distortion of the data. Alowing a shortning of 75ns for each inline device could result in a total 300nS shortning. That's a 7.5% error in bit timing.
For the specific instance you mentioned: the processor controlling the switch matrix, I would drop the 1st preamble byte. This gives the processor time to set up the routing to get the next byte out on time.
