I purchased 2x each
Aquantia AQC-108 5G cards
Aquantia AQC-107 10G cards - Asus XG-C100C
The AQC-107 are the Asus cards in this thread.
Over
Cat-5e in home using iPerf3.
AQC-108 5G: 4.30 Gbps
AQC-107 10G: 6.39 Gbps
For the 10G cards speed was measured connected through 2 10G switches.
The switches are connected to each other in the home via Cat-5e
Card #1 (Bedroom) is connected to the Asus switch over Cat-5e.
Card #2 (Garage) is connected to the Netgear switch over 5' Cat-6
I ended up purchasing 2 switches to connect these cards.
- Netgear XS708v2
placed in Garage with Home Lab
- Asus XG-U2008
placed in Bedroom walk-in closet
all home wiring runs into master bedroom closet
The AQC-108 card speed was measured via direct connection, no switches.
However, direct connection was across 2 longer Cat-5e runs.
I could not get the AQC-108 5G cards to connect at 5G to the 10G switches.
The 10G switches consider these cards to be 1G and speed is limited to 1G (949 Mbps)
I may be able to return the AQS-108 cards. I can't see much use for them now.
