Abstract

An apparatus and a method for use in a digital communication session is disclosed. The apparatus communicates with a like apparatus at a remote location through a digital communication network over a plurality of channels. The apparatus can change dynamically the bandwidth of the communication session by changing the number of channels utilized during the communication session. In addition, the apparatus provides a novel phase correction circuitry for reordering the digital data received from the plurality of channels to reconstitute the single transmitting digital data stream.
