Two way simultaneous transmission.
The ability to simultaneously transmit and receive data.

Telco communication that is bi-directional. ISDN is full duplex, so each end of the connection can simultaneously transmit to the other.
Simultaneous two-way voice and two-way signal data transmission.
Sending data in both directions at the same time. Usually higher quality, but requires more bandwidth. In videoconferencing, full duplex will result in a more natural image. [Source: York Telecom
The ability of a soundcard or audio recording card installed in a computer to record and playback audio simultaneously.
hands free: Without lifting the handset you can have a normal conversation over the loud speaker just as if you were using the handset. This is a major improvement over half duplex whereby whichever party was speaking loudest cut off the other party. Very useful for small conferences.
Ability to transmit and receive signals at the same time.
When two systems can send and receive simultaneously, usually via a sound card and a microphone.
Refers to a communications system that uses two separate transmit and receive paths to allow simultaneous conversation in two directions. FVC (forward voice channel): A voice channel used in the base station-to-subscriber direction, also known as the voice channel downlink.

A design principle whereby the return signal initiates as soon as the beginning of the interrogation signal is received and the smoothing capacitor in the transponder has been charged. The return signal is received repetitively and without interruption for as long as a continuous interrogation signal is maintained. An FDX transponder does not have to store energy to be able to return its entire data content.
The ability of a networking device to receive and transmit data simultaneously.
communications can take place in both directions at the same time
flow of information in both directions at the same time
Refers to the transmission of data in two directions simultaneously. In full-duplex mode, data you transmit does not appear on your screen until it has been received and sent back by the other party. This enables you to validate that the data has been accurately transmitted.
A mode of communication where both parties can send and receive simultaneously (e.g. the PSTN is full duplex since both participants of a telephone conversation can talk simultaneously, if they choose) Close this window

Communications in two directions simultaneously.
Communication over a bi-directional medium in which both ends may send or receive data at the same time.
A mode of transmitting audio data (such as speech) in which data can be sent and received at the same time; in this way Full Duplex resembles the type of conversation you would have with someone in person or over a telephone.
is simultaneous bidirectional transmission, as opposed to alternating bidirectional transmission (half duplex).
Transmission allowing data to travel in and out simultaneously. In videoconferencing, full duplex allows people at different sites to speak at the same time, as in real life. With half-duplex, if Person A speaks then the voice of Person B is cut-off for as long as Person A continues to talk.
A signal or transmission where the transfer of data can go in both directions at the same time. Full duplex signals allow more information to be transfered.
A communication method where both ends can transmit and receive simultaneously.
A type of data communication in which a computer system can transmit and receive data simultaneously. Terminals and modems usually have settings for half duplex (one-way) and full duplex communication; the Unix system uses the full-duplex setting. Gigabyte 1024 Megabytes, or 1,073,741,824 bytes (characters) of information.
A network transfer mode that allows the for NIC to transmit and receive data simultaneously. Most often used with Ethernet, although both of the NIC's and hub have to support it. This effectively doubles the effective throughput of a connection.
Indicates bi-directional data flow in terms of data flow.
A communication channel over which both transmission and reception are possible in two directions at the same time. A standard telephone line is a full duplex system because people on either end of the connect can simultaneously speak while listening to sounds coming from the other end.
Full duplex operation is the ability of a sound card to simultaneously record and play back. This makes it possible to play a piece of music via your sound card and record a singing track via the same card at the same time.
The capability for simultaneous data transmission between a sending station and a receiving station (both directions at the same time).

A data communications circuit over which data can be sent in both directions simultaneously.
Network connection type that provides for network nodes sending and receiving data at the same time, thus doubling the theoretical "speed limit" of connections. For example, normal fast Ethernet, at 100 MBps, runs at half duplex. With switched connections, which allow full duplex, the transmission speed is 200 MBps.
A two-way transmission system, synonymous with duplex, in which information can be carried in both directions simultaneously.

Full-duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both directions on a signal carrier at the same time. For example, on a local area network with a technology that has full-duplex transmission, one workstation can be sending data on the line while another workstation is receiving data. Full-duplex transmission necessarily implies a bidirectional line (one that can move data in both directions).
