With the right gear this is much lower, only 1 switch on the market that is this good though the one mentioned in my blog, I'm sure others will follow at some point with the same or similar chipset, that vendor OEMs all their network chipsets these days so others have access to them too.
10 Gbit SFP+:
- latency 0.3 us
- power per port: 1.5W
- price per port: $40
They've obviously left out the cost of the GBIC.. which is typically several hundred $/port
You don't have to buy GBICs, you can run direct attached copper or EOE cables.
