Okay. Sure. But why do we notice that on 10GbaseT and on 1? Is there some signal processing which is exponentially expensive at faster speeds? I’ve seen cards using 25W per port.

A 10Gbase-T PHY is a sophisticated DSP. Not sure if the power needs are exponential, given we only have a few data points, but it's in the ballpark. (1000base-T PHYs are already DSPs, but nowhere near as sophisticated)
