I have T1700G-28TQ 10Gbit switch anad have been thinking about upgrading connection to my PC with 10Gbit (I am an impatient ass and running backups is annoying the hell out of me).
The switch has four SFP+ slots.
Would you rather buy RJ45 card or would you go with optical cable?
I've been eying XG-C100C|Wired Networking|ASUS Global this one and the price is just about right, but I'd need something like MikroTik S+RJ10 module as well, which would drive the price up. On the other hand, DAC cables are by no means cheap (I'd need something in the 5-7m range worth of cable).
What would you buy and why? Tips for other cards with RJ45 are also welcome no matter what.
