Recommend a home/pro use 10 gigabit switch on Cat 6a (at least 8 ports)? Want to run native Cat 6a without SPF+.

Thanks.

While I really like the UniFi switches both of their 10G switches only have 4 RJ45. Another option would be the https://mikrotik.com/product/crs312_4c_8xg_rm which has 8 10G RJ45 ports.

Hi Tom, love your channel and appreciate the reply.

I also love UniFi switches, just wish they made a switch with 8 10G RJ45. I guess, I am trying to figured out the cost of running SFP+

I can get 25 foot cat 7 cable for $10.99 - https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=13660

However a 3m (10 foot) SFP+ cable is $114.99 - https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=13394. Is that right? Or is there a better way to do SFP+?

We use the 10GTEK ones, 10ft is only $20.99
