    And that’s great and all, but I don’t need a new board. What about a $10 add-on card for those that can’t/don’t need to buy a whole board? A quick look on Amazon, competing add-on cards are $70 and up… For $10 they can swallow the market whole for this.

      Yes. Base-T 10Gb is limited to 55m depending on the cable

      While fibre can go from 400m to to 80Km depending on the cable and optics.

      If you want to rip out all existing wiring and add SFP+ with fiber on all your end devices, then yes.
