half duplex
half duplex Involving or denoting a connection between two endpoints, either physical or logical, over which data may travel in both directions, but not both simultaneously. An important parameter of a half-duplex connection is the turnaround time, i.e. the time it takes to reverse the roles of sender and receiver. See also duplex, simplex.
