Hello, Your main system has an Onboard 2.5 Gb Ethernet. With a RJ45 to SFP+ module, can you still achieve 2.5Gb? The model you're considering matches the switch: Wiitek 10GBase-T 10G RJ45 to SFP+ Copper Transceiver 30-Meter, compatible with Cisco SFP-10G-T-S, Ubiquiti, D-Link, Supermicro, Netgear, Mikrotik (Cat 6a/7). You already have a Cat6A cable in the walls. There are other systems you're planning to set up on NIC cards for 10Gb internet, a NAS server, and a download server. The cost comparison shows RJ45 to SFP+ is more economical than using a NIC card. Thanks, Matthew Stewart.

I think the module and switch both handle 2.5GbE, even though it's not officially documented. It should function, right? Note: You might find an Intel X520 on eBay for a reasonable price if you're looking for used options.

Everything must back 2.5 Gbps. What I mean is that just because a switch can handle 10 Gbps doesn't guarantee it will work at 2.5 or 5 Gbps since those are newer specs and older gear won't support them. You'll need to check thoroughly to confirm all components—modules, switch, NIC, and cabling—are compatible with the standard.
