Re:10Gb/s Ethernet: switching to a Broadcom SFP+ module by ahepp on Tuesday June 16, 2026 @11:48PM (#48565466)
I wasn't aware there was a substantial latency difference between fiber and copper. Some googling suggests copper might be .4-.8c and fiber might be a more reliable .6c? But even if there was a huge difference in speed of light through the medium, inside a home aren't the distances so short that it wouldn't matter?
