(Note that the X710 is 10G and the XL710 is 40G because XL is 40 in Roman numerals.) http://www.colfaxdirect.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=2227&idcategory=0 (I've never bought from Colfax, but they carry a lot of "enterprise" equipment that isn't available on NewEgg/Amazon.) There are super-cheap optics and twinax available from China. You may have to hack the Intel driver since they're not "supported". http://www.fiberstore.com/c/10g-sfp+_63 http://www.fiberstore.com/c/10g-sfp+-cables_1115 Or you could just get an account at the Snabb Lab. -- Wes Felter IBM Research - Austin
