ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for splitting an asynchronous signal are provided. The method includes: buffering, according to frame sequence, an asynchronous signal to be split; and sending n frames of data respectively on n channels in parallel whenever n frames of data have been buffered, where n is a ratio of a rate level of the asynchronous signal before split to that of the asynchronous signal after split. A method and apparatus for signal combination are provided. The method includes: buffering n channels of parallel signals to be combined simultaneously according to frame sequence; and sending n channels of frames serially after one frame is buffered for each of the n channels of the parallel signals; wherein n is a ratio of a rate level of the parallel signals after combined to a rate level of the parallel signals before combined.
