There's an 8-port TP-LINK that's somewhat similar, in that it supports 1/2.5G copper (x8) and 10G SFP+ uplinks (x2). Street prices seem to be about half of the Netgear, if you can sacrifice the 5/10G support on 4 of the copper ports.
I imagine because the fabric is still relatively new most implementations will be very similar in terms of design and price. It's mostly when you drop features you can cut costs (like the TP-Link). It's really tricky this early on because it used to be that there weren't that many BaseT modes to support while right now between 10M HD and 10G FD there are a ton of different modes making it much more expensive to fully support (except when they drop things like 10M, HD and NBaseT).
