segmentation
<networking> (Or "segmentation and reassembly", SAR) Breaking
an arbitrary size packet into smaller pieces at the
transmitter. This may be necessary because of restrictions in

are joined back together in the right order at the receiver

when routing a packet to a network with a smaller maximum
packet size.
The term "segmentation" is used in ATM, in TCP/IP, it is
called "fragmentation" an is performed at the IP layer
before the "fragments" are passed to the transport layer.
See for example ATM forum UNI 4.0 specification.
