Sounds interesting. Q) you doing 10G from workstation to datacentre ? or just the cluster of servers in the DC. I personally like SFP+ modules- you can choice between fibre or ... if I can't use SMOF, or if it's in the same rack, I go with DAC cables. They have the SFP and cable pre attached .. you can be a bit more rough with them compare to fibre. It sounds like a rack with servers, storage and switching. So Office -> rack area ??? not sure depends on run Server -> switch ... DAC Switch -> storage ..

I haven't, however had any experience with installing 10Gbe networks as yet, and know very little about them apart from that cat6a is required to go over 100m and that latency is higher with copper vs SFP+. My initial reaction was to go with 10GBase-T as it's a familiar format to me (especially where running cable is concerned) but I'm happy to be convinced on the merits of running fibre. Does anyone have any experiences they can share on this topic?
