 Odd wording on the timing; I'm aware of at least one manufactured 1U
system with onboard SFP+ that's been available since Q1-Q2 of this year.

 (I don't work for the manufacturer, just for a fairly happy customer.)

It was really unfortunate of Intel to release Romley with 10G copper only
support at launch, I hear though that soon there will be motherboards with
the SFP+ ports integrated.

Does anyone here have experience running copper 10Gbase-T networks? It
seems like the standard just died out.

Well, our new supermicro servers come with 10Gbase-T standard on the
motherboard.

For us it would make a lot of sense
for our applications -- even if throughput and latency aren't as great.
If anyone out there knows of any *copper* 10 gig-t switches (48 port?)
