I recently tried FTP Explorer (Windows), and in the past I used Fetch
on MacOS doing simultaneous transfers in both cases. On closer look it
seems those applications use the first ftp control connection for the
main window, and upon a file transfer request issue another ftp
control connection to handle that file transfer, including the ftp
data stuff. I just transferred two large files at the same time under
FTP Explorer and observed 3 control connections and two data
connections (PASV mode).
