(Let's also not forget that 2.5gbps can run on existing 5e cabling, and 10gbps can't. If someone's in an already-wired environment, and not expecting to take on the cost and effort of rewiring it...

My NAS supports 2.5gbps. The NIC built into my compuer supports 2.5gbps. Sure, I'd love faster, but if I went straight to 10gbps, I'd have to buy a new NIC, an upgrade card for my NAS (and remove the...

I simply do not understand why people need more than 100MB/s external internet. I can understand why people want 2.5G internal internet. Right now the sweet spot is 2.5G because it can use the...

You can saturate a 1gbps.port with small array of HDDs. Im these days of 7,000 MB/s SSDs and 70 gig 4k (soon to be 8k) video files, you want 10Gbps Ethernet which is actually an older, more mature...

Not sure it’s comparable because to get 10g over Ethernet you would have to buy expensive Sfp adapter.

You realize the cost difference between 1Gb and 2.5Gb USB-C is trivial, especially if you are going USB-C and not A. I have 10Gb fiber & 2.5Gb through my home for the pleasure and practicality as I...

I've been engineering enterprise networks since the days of broken ring and flashing eeproms, but that's beside the point. Broadcast domain count is completely irrelevant to bandwidth consumption.

You obviously have no clue how Networking works if you don't think you can't saturate a 1G connection easily. If you have even just a few vlans trying to inter-vlan routing and you'll completely...

What's the power usage at the wall for one of those 6450's? My electricity rates have risen 52% in the past year, so the appeal of these kind of switches is that they sip power (usually 5 watts or...

Move data between machines at 2.5x the speed of 1Gb?
That's like asking the use case of a processor that's 30% faster against one that is 100% faster but cost 3x as much.

What service are you downloading files from at >1Gb speeds? Unless you're doing multithreaded dls - like torrents or newsgroups. Just keep your service at 1Gb and save yourself the cash altogether.

Yeah, I'm going to have to call bs on folks saturating their 1G connections. As for needing to connect to 2.5 devices (APs as you mentioned), that just reinforces my point. It's a cash grab by...

Because some 10G switches can't negotiate speeds correctly for 2.5G (very common for those old cheap switches). So for example you have a 1.2G internet connection and a AP that can handle a 2.5G...

This is $100. A 10G is about $300. If you have 2 gbps internet and just want to be able to use what you’re paying for even if it’s just for faster downloads, why spend the extra $200?
