In a bundled link system which partitions a data packet into varying size cells, a data packet is partitioned into a stream of cells of which the last two cells are partial cells. When the data has been partitioned so that less than the data required to fill two maximum size cells remains, the remaining data is divided into two cells where the cell size is selected so that each cell is larger than a predetermined minimum size. In a preferred embodiment, the remaining data is equally divided into partial size cells. In particular, in accordance with one embodiment, when there is less than two times the maximum size cell of data remaining to be partitioned in a packet and the remaining data is more than the maximum cell size, then the cell size used for the last two cells is the size of the remaining data divided by two.
