    The document discusses three modes of computer network transmission: simplex, half-duplex, and full-duplex. Simplex mode allows unidirectional transmission from one device to another. Half-duplex allows bidirectional transmission but only one direction at a time. Full-duplex allows both devices to send and receive simultaneously.

    Computer Network Transmission Mode


    Duplex or Transmission Mode:

    Transmission Mode or Duplex means transferring of data between two devices. It is also known as
    Communication Mode.

    The Transmission Mode is divided into 3 categories –


    • Simplex Mode
    • Half-duplex Mode
    • Full-duplex Mode

    Simplex Mode: –

    • It is a Unidirectional Communication; the data transmits in one direction only from one device to
    another device.
    • The sender device that sends data can only but cannot received the data. Other hand the receiver
    device that receive only the data but cannot send the data.
    • Example: – T.V. and Keyboard.

    Advantages of Simplex Mode: –

    • The main advantages of Simplex mode are that the full capacity of the transmission medium is
    utilized during the transmission, there are no any traffic issues.

    Disadvantages of Simplex Mode:

    • There are no possibilities of Bio-directional communication. Here two devices cannot


    communicate with each other.

    Half-duplex Mode:

    • It is a Bio-directional transmission but one at a time.


    • When the sender in sending the data receiver can only receive, they cannot send at the same time
    and vice versa.
    • Example: – Walkie-talkie.

    Advantages of Half-duplex Mode:

    • The main advantages of the Half-duplex mode are that they can utilize the entire bandwidth
    during the transmission.

    Disadvantages of Half-duplex Mode:

    • In Half-duplex mode, when one device sending the data, then another device receiving the data,
    then another device waits, they can be some delay at the time.

    Full-duplex Mode: –

    • It is a Bio-directional communication.
    • Both devices sending and receiving data at the same time.
    • Example: – Telephone network.

    Advantages of Full-duplex mode: –

    • No delay in communications both devices can send and receive data at the same time.

    Disadvantages of Full-duplex mode: –

    • The full capacity is divided by into both directions.

    Comparison of Simple, Half-duplex and Full-duplex mode:
