IIRC, it takes about 13W to maintain a 10GBASET connection. That's a lot of power to drain from a tiny board that wasn't designed to supply such loads. ~tom On Saturday, February 1, 2014 1:32:58 PM, Phil Bedard <bedard.phil () gmail com> wrote: Pluggable SFP+ transceiver. There are plenty of fixed config 10GBase-T devices out there. Power/space in a SFP+ package just isn't there yet. Phil
Tom, I believe the newer 10GBase-T standard is between 1.5 and 4W per port depending on the cable length, much better (colder!) than it was. You will also get slightly increased latency with 10GBase-T vs SFP+ -- Bryan G. Seitz
