- shmerl 3y agoI found one with Aquantia chip: Sonnet Solo10G SFP+.
- geonineties 3y agoNice! What OS do you run it with?
- shmerl 3y agoLinux. It worked out of the box. But some details here: https://docs.kernel.org/networking/device_drivers/ethernet/aquantia/atlantic.html https://docs.kernel.org/networking/device_drivers/ethernet/a...
- geonineties 3y agoYeah, Linux is really nice for running 10g cards. Being from Sonnet, I'd expect it to work with OSX too. I've had worse luck w/windows .
- shmerl 3y agoYeah, haven't tested it on Windows, but they supposedly support it too. I was also looking for some good passively cooled switches for SFP+ and they are hard to find. Mikrotik CRS305-1G-4S+IN looked good, but I'd prefer something with open OS on it. They don't seem to exist.
- geonineties 3y agoI went the other way with AliExpress mokerlink unmanaged. It's cheap, and my network is pretty simple
