    Chapter 1: Product Description the end-node is operating in what is referred to as half-duplex mode. If an end-node can both receive and transmit data simultaneously, the end- node is said to be operating in full-duplex mode. Naturally, an end-node capable of operating in full-duplex can handle data much faster than an end-node that can only operate in half-duplex mode.
