10-gbase-t sucks, massive power draw, massive heat generation. Use fibre.
You'll still run into issues with USB connections and ensuring you have a high speed through them as not all usb connectors and dongles will run reliably at 10g bidirectional.
- anonymousiam 1mo agoI agree 100%, but my relatively new house already had Cat6 everywhere, and I did not think it was worthwhile to start tearing up walls. Also, lots of the connected goodies use PoE++ which you cannot do over fiber. (I'm aware of some instances where the light in the fiber has been used to power local electronics, but AFAIK there's no standard for this, and it's probably not an economical solution for me.)
