e/Segmentation and Reassembly

Information
has gloss	eng: Segmentation and Reassembly refers to the process used to fragment and reassemble packets so as to allow them to be transported across Asynchronous Transfer Mode networks. Since ATM's payload is only 48 bytes, nearly every packet from any other protocol has to be processed in this way. Thus, it is an essential process for any ATM node. It is usually handled by a dedicated chip, called the SAR.
