You have to use the Pagination control and implement a page factory. The factory is called for every page that should be displayed and you can use its parameter, the pageIndex, to provide a sublist of items to the TableView:

TableView table = ...

private Node createPage(int pageIndex) {

    int fromIndex = pageIndex * rowsPerPage;
    int toIndex = Math.min(fromIndex + rowsPerPage, data.size());
    table.setItems(FXCollections.observableArrayList(data.subList(fromIndex, toIndex)));

    return new BorderPane(table);
}


@Override
public void start(final Stage stage) throws Exception {

    Pagination pagination = new Pagination((data.size() / rowsPerPage + 1), 0);
    pagination.setPageFactory(this::createPage);
    ...
}
