Methods and devices for dividing differently sized data transmission units into fixed sized segments for use with a switch core. Differently sized data transmission units are divided into a number of fixed size segments. Each of the fixed size segments has a segment header section and segment payload section. The segment header section has routing information for the segments and a field for indicating whether the segment payload section is fully occupied or not. The segment payload section carries the actual data from the data transmission unit that has been divided. If the segment payload section is not fully occupied, a field in the payload section indicates how much of the space in the segment payload section is occupied. To track segments from the same data transmission un it the segment header section also has a EOP or end of package field that indicates whether a segment the end of the sequence of segments derived from a single divided data transmission unit.
