Is it not better to use fibre for 10Gbps than Ethernet?

Yes. Base-T 10Gb is limited to 55m depending on the cable

While fibre can go from 400m to to 80Km depending on the cable and optics.

Yes it’s a huge issue when I pass network runs in my palace.

And that’s great and all, but I don’t need a new board. What about a $10 add-on card for those that can’t/don’t need to buy a whole board? A quick look on Amazon, competing add-on cards are $70 and up… For $10 they can swallow the market whole for this.
