If I'm understanding correctly this does double the amount of information sent in a chunk of time. Example: You send 1Mbit over a sec. Then you pause for 1 sec

If I'm understanding correctly this does double the amount of information sent in a chunk of time. Example: You send 1Mbit over a sec. Then you pause for 1 sec to receive 1Mbit. Effectively, you've only sent 1Mbit over 2 seconds. Now, due to being in full duplex mode, you can send 1Mbit over 1 sec while simultaneously receiving 1Mbit over 1 sec. Thus, allowing you to send 2Mbit over 2 seconds. 1Mbit/sec is double .5Mbit/sec.
