do any switches like this exist? I only really need 2 10gBase-T ports (10Gb IN and 1 device 10Gb) , and the others can be 1Gb. I have three systems at the same location, my main workstation/desktop that I want 10GB to, and my work laptop and testbench which are fine on the 1Gb connection. My desktop has a 10GbBase-T via the ROMED8-2T motherboard, and the room is already wired with copper ethernet and all three systems already use copper ethernet (RJ45) and would be a huge pain to try to run fiber to this room. small and passive will be ideal.
I couldn't really find anything like this. I know I could use the Mikrotik 5-port, but it's all SFP+ and I'd need to spend another $150 on the SFP+ to RJ45 adapers to use the copper connections.
