Re: Is there such a thing as a 10GBase-T SFP+ transciever

IIRC, it takes about 13W to maintain a 10GBASET connection. That's a lot of
power to drain from a tiny board that wasn't designed to supply such loads.

Pluggable SFP+ transceiver.  There are plenty of fixed config 10GBase-T

As for 10GBase-T in a transceiver, I haven't seen that on anyone's
roadmap.  It will probably come eventually but not for awhile.

It must exist, as there is this:
