Howdy Tham,

It often was occured such a reflection problem on daisy-chain
connection.

Use "H" topology to solve it.

Divide clock line with T junction at exact center of 8 loads, after that
devide again at exact center of each 4 loads, and after that devide at
center of each 2. The point is that each "branch" must be the same
length.

Regards,
