A device for shifting data in a cascade multiplexer shifter allows the shifter to be used in a full-length mode or in a split mode where the shifter is divided into two equal halves with upper and lower half fields thereof respectively receiving individual data numbers. Each data number is thereafter simultaneously shifted right or shifted left a given shift amount to effect a dual right or dual left shift function.
