The cbrts consumer was made to provide T-STD compliant CBR output with
special care for PCR accuracy, interval, and continuity. The ASI version of
these, from which they were born, were tested against ETSI TR 101 290 for
DVB compliance. The ASI card regulated the send rate, but you will need to
figure out something for sockets if you want to use this. Good luck.
