duplex

If you have a printer that can print on both sides of a sheet of paper, it's duplex. If you have a communications line that lets you send and receive data (or talk and listen) at the same time, it's duplex. If you use a cheap speakerphone, you'll notice that as soon as it picks up any noise at your end, it cuts off whatever was being said by the person on the other end. That speakerphone is not duplex.
