Hello @Valentijm,
I appreciate your additional notes and discussion about the possibility of bandwidth overhead based on the technology.
You will be interested to know that my team has been discussing the very same bandwidth overhead, and the nature of the cascading technologies, with me. This means there a cap to the Ethernet bandwidth will be expected.
I have requested some more details to see if there is more discussion about these limits or if there are other work arounds that we can suggest.
It would seem that other manufacturers may experience the same sort of issue with similar products at these speeds. We do have other solutions like external PCIe Thunderbolt chassis’ that could allow you to connect a fiber optic network card but I will wait for some more details from my team before I make some specific recommendations.
Please let me know if you have any other questions in the meantime.
Sincerely,
@DavidF
