MDS9000 Port Bandwidth

Hello,

Quick question on available port bandwidth on a MDS9000 series SAN switch. Do FC ISLs and port channels (all ports for that matter) run at full duplex like Ethernet? So, if I have a port or ISL connected at 8Gb, I have 8Gb of bandwidth receiving and 8Gb of bandwidth transmitting?  Or, do I only have 8Gb total? If I'm sending at 7Gb, I only have 1Gb available for receive.

 

Thanks.
