  The cost of distributed quantum operations such as the telegate and teledata
protocols is high due to latencies from distributing entangled photons and
classical information. This paper proposes an extension to the telegate and
teledata protocols to allow for asynchronous classical communication which
hides the cost of distributed quantum operations. We then discuss the benefits
and limitations of these asynchronous protocols and propose a potential way to
improve these asynchronous protocols using nonunitary operators. Finally, a
quantum network card is described as an example of how asynchronous quantum
operations might be used.
