Since the T1 circuit is a full-duplex circuit, you have 1.544 Mbps available in both the TX and RX direction. A full duplex circuit is designed such that you have two separate communication paths for the TX and RX sides of the communication. With half-duplex circuits, they share the available bandwidth and communication paths.
