It means packet reception ratio (PRR --- num packets transmitted
successfully/total number of packets transmitted) is 1.0.

Moreover, ETX in CTP is bi-directional, it accounts for the quality of 
link from receiver to transmitter (on which ACKs are transmitted)

On the otherhand, throughput of a link is how fast you can succesfully 
pump data on onto the link (bytes/second). It is true that throughput 
of a link is a function of its ETX, but I am not sure what you 
mean by 100% throughput.
