How many number of transmission modes exists for data communication circuits ?

  • A.4
  • B.3
  • C.2
  • D.1

Answer: B

The key gives (B) 3.

The usual answer is three transmission modes: simplex (data flows one way only), half duplex (both ways, but one direction at a time) and full duplex (both ways at once). Every standard classification of a data communication circuit contains these three.

Some data communications texts add a fourth, full/full duplex, in which a station sends to one station while receiving from another. That is why 4 can be argued, but the key and the common classification give 3. Two and one would leave out one of the three basic modes.
