A facility for mapping a plurality of different Virtual Circuit Channels (VCC) into a single VCC is provided for use in a data network. In operation, the facility assembles, in turn, data cells each having a data payload and appropriate header identifying a respective VCC into a series of data cells. The series is then segmented into a predetermined number of data payloads, and a header identifying a common connection over the network is then appended to each of the payloads. The result is then transported over the data network via the common connection.
