1. A method which is simplex operation at one end of the circuit and duplex operation at the other. RR Footnote: In general, duplex operation and semiduplex operation require two frequencies in radiocommunication; simplex operation may use either one or two. [NTIA] [RR]
2. Operation of a communications network in which a base station operates in a duplex mode with… (Read More →)

See sending loudness rating. [T1.508-1998]

A device that accepts address information from a register or routing information from a translator, and then transmits the proper routing information to a trunk or to local equipment.
Note: Sender and register functions are often combined in a single unit.
