Hi,
I apologize if this is not the right spot to ask for advise regarding Networking. Please move the post if so.
I have a 10Gb SFP+ switch in one room and 1Gb switch with SFP+ uplinks in the other room. I would love to connect these two switches with a SFP+ cable for 10Gb bandwidth for devices between both rooms.
Question/Problem:
How do I connect two SFP+ ports that are more than 25 ft far apart? Is it even possible?
I was looking at Cat6 solutions since the cable is pretty reasonable and supports 10Gb. But the 10Gb Ethernet switches are too expensive for home lab.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks!
