täysdupleksisesti

Täysdupleksisesti, or full-duplex, is a mode of communication in telecommunications and computing that allows data to be transmitted in both directions simultaneously. This is in contrast to half-duplex, where data can only flow in one direction at a time, and simplex, where data flows in only one direction.

In a full-duplex system, two separate communication channels are established, one for sending and one for receiving. This enables a device to send data at the same time it is receiving data from another device. This is a fundamental concept in modern networking, allowing for efficient and uninterrupted data flow.

Common examples of full-duplex communication include telephone calls, where both parties can speak and hear each other at the same time, and Ethernet network connections, which typically operate in full-duplex mode. This simultaneous transmission significantly increases the effective bandwidth and reduces latency compared to half-duplex or simplex systems.

The implementation of full-duplex communication requires specific hardware and protocols that can manage bidirectional data flow without interference. This capability is crucial for applications that require real-time interaction and high data throughput, such as video conferencing, online gaming, and high-speed internet access.
