Bill,

You are correct in the sense that your available bandwidth will be
effectively doubled.  It will be able to both transfer and receive data
simultaneously at 100Mbps (theoretical bandwidth).

Whereas, if you were running a half duplex Ethernet network, the 10Mbit of
bandwidth is only ever used in one direction at a time.
