I was trying to get 10G interconnects for the switches where I am. 
Copper? Not possible...cable lengths are measured in a few metres. If 
you get OM3 fibre, you can use some of the 'cheaper' 10G SPF+ 
modules/transceivers out there.


You might be better off getting multi-port cards like the Intel ones and 
bonding.
