SOLVED: Thanks, now I do know it’s a energy situation with SFP.

Hey people,

Fast query. Organising some cabling (as much as 45m of cable) which I plan to with two 10GbE NICs. Pondering of going with SFP+ slots for doable future fiber improve.

Seen one thing although: SFP+ modules appear to point a variety restrict, normally 30m or 80m max. Is that this a SFP+ factor? Or do common NICs have this too, however simply do not promote it?

It was my expectation that with a standard 10GbE RJ45 NIC and correct cat6a underneath 100 meters, 10GbE hyperlinks might be established. Now I’ve doubts about that being a factor or only a theoretical restrict which aren’t possible with regular NICs (and them simply working underneath 30m too or one thing comparable).

Any recommendation, perception or suggestions could be superior.

Cheers!
