Port combinations for paired ports
For any port pair (7/4, 6/1, 2/5, or 3/8), the following rules apply:
— If one port is used to transmit, the other can be used only to receive.
— If one port is used in full duplex mode (simultaneous transmit/receive), the
other port is unavailable for use, because all the resources of the pair are
assigned to the full duplex port.
The possible combinations of settings for a port pair are illustrated below.

Supported settings for paired ports
It is also possible to use one of these ports for Tx and a port from a different
pair as Rx. For example, port RFIO 7 can be the output, and RF10 1 can be the
input.
