Learning from nestat

The netstat output looks something like -

Source IP: Source Port     Destination IP: Destination Port

I had an understanding that the source ports for any two such netstat entries cannot be same, Was proved wrong. The source port can be same,  just that combination of 4 should be unique between two such entries.

i.e. this is possible

10.10.XX.XXX: 50493     10.10.40.XX:8009
10.10.XX.XXX: 50493     10.10.40.X:8009
