sub-microsecond triggering should be doable with a level-2 cut-through switch and an ethernet broadcast no? I admit that ethernet is not really designed for that as the Phy is then the latency bottleneck.

There are approaches to real-time ethernet (some industry implementations like profinet or ethercat, 802.1as from IEEE) but support is spotty and it requires specialized gear to be effective.
