Bidirectional refers to a system or communication that can operate in two directions, allowing data or information to be transmitted back and forth between two points. In other words, bidirectional systems are capable of sending and receiving signals or messages, enabling two-way communication. This type of system is commonly used in telecommunications, computer networking, and control systems. Examples include bi-directional amplifiers for radio frequency signals, bidirectional Ethernet cables for network connections, and bidirectional flow control valves in fluid systems.
