Can you try increasing the wire format's maxInactivityDurationInitialDelay as described by Christian in a similar-sounding problem last year: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/Wire-Format-Negotiation-Timeout-Say-what-td4666972.html
That may not be the final solution (there might be underlying network problems that need to be addressed by your admins), but it should help diagnose if that's what's going on...
