The article shows an add-in board and says it's $10. If that's retail price, it's not much more than a 1G add-in nic. That gives it potential for mass adoption

The article shows an add-in board and says it's $10.
If that's retail price, it's not much more than a 1G add-in nic. That gives it potential for mass adoption.
Realtek also makes some low cost 10g and 2.5g/10g switch chips that are reasonable cost if you shop on aliexpress.
Having another vendor should help drive down retail pricing as well.
- bryanlarsen 1y agoThe article contradicts itself. The text says that the chip will be sold for $10. The headline says the board will be sold for $10. Generally editors write headlines while the journalist writes the text, so when they conflict, the headline is usually wrong. A $10 retail price for a board would be a big deal. A $10 wholesale price for a chip is not news.
