1. A communications device comprising:
- a plurality of buffers, each configured to receive and store data;
a demultiplexer configured to distribute consecutive portions of a data signal among the plurality of buffers in a predetermined order; and
a logic circuit configured to output a mask signal,wherein the mask signal is based on a previous state of the mask signal, andwherein each of the plurality of buffers is configured to output a stored portion of the data signal according to a corresponding bit of the mask signal.

Abstract
Communications equipment includes a demultiplexer that controllably delivers portions of the data to buffers in a particular order, a logic circuit that selectively controls the transmission of the data from the buffers such that a transmission order of the data portions is preserved, and transmission circuits, each in communication with at least one of the buffers. A method of transmitting data is further disclosed.
