I am not aware that you can generally trade bandwidth for delay 
(said simply: if you have end-2-end delay constraints to meet & sum of 
your link propagation delays exceeds it, there is little you can do)  
so having arbitrary amounts 
of bandwidth does not necessarily solve the end-2-end delay problem.
