Just so noone is confused it was called NBaseT while it was still a "pre-standard" and for marketing purposes... Proper name is 802.3bz http://www.nbaset.org/nbase-t-alliance-celebrates-approval-2-55g-ethernet-standard/ On Thu, Mar 29, 2018 at 2:14 PM, Harold Bledsoe wrote: > There's some net

Mikrotik does have one, but I don't think they're actually shipping yet. There's also at least one other brand of sfp+ module. On Thu, Mar 29, 2018, 4:09 PM Forrest Christian (List Account) < li...@packetflux.com> wrote: > Looks like mikrotik claims to have copper sfp+ which negotiates to 2.5 as

Cisco has been shipping NBaseT switches that do it for a while now. Some of their (very expensive) 802.11ac APs support it. The proper standardized term now is 802.3bz which will autonegotiate for 5, 2.5 or 1 Gbps depending on the quality of the copper. On Thu, Mar 29, 2018 at 1:30 PM, Seth Mat

You might be surprised actually. 2.5G was designed to work over CAT5e cabling and has similar performance requirements to 1G. Give it a whirl! :-) On Thu, Mar 29, 2018 at 8:20 AM Chuck McCown wrote: > Not tested. Prob not. > > Sent from my iPhone > > On Mar 29, 2018, at 7:19 AM, Mike Hammett
