That's not bad pricing wise. There's very very little prosumer gear that's multi gigabit and it's all much higher price, or it's just a PC with several NICs.
If and when we move to hyperfibre this is going to be pretty high up on the list.
Hyper fiber??? I don't even have regular fiber here and y'all are moving on to HYPER???
For some it's long overdue. Fiber is soon to be 20 years old at my house.
But honestly, I don't think most people need hyper fiber anyway, so that's probably why we havent seen it.
This week I was discussing with a friend trying to check some boxes and see if she really needed the 10Gbps connection they were planning to subscribe to on the new house. The usual 1Gbps connectiom we already have is more than enough. But we considered that in very small cases it might be useful.
