Computer Network Transmission Modes
Three Types of Transmission Mode
Simplex Mode
Half-Duplex Mode
Full-Duplex Mode
The data is only distributed in one way, from one device to another.
Simplex Mode
Both forms can be conducted in _____________ transmission, which means that if two devices are linked to ______________ transmission mode, both can transmit and receive data, but not at the same time.
Half-Duplex Mode
The linked devices will both send and receive data simultaneously in ______________. An example of a complete ________________ where we can talk simultaneously is the cell phone we use.
Full-Duplex Mode
