I have had the Ubiquiti Unifi 10G Ethernet Adapter in my Shopee shopping cart for a few weeks now. But because it is expensive, it remains in my cart. Sinseng Components sells it for S$299 on Shopee.
When the Singtel Technician came to setup my 10Gbps, he was using the Orico Thunderbolt 10GbE Network Adapter. I was casually asking him if it was expensive, and he told me it was one of the cheapest he could find.
TP-Link has two models of 10Gbps unmanaged switches. TP-Link TL-SX1008 8-Port 10G Desktop/Rackmount Switch and TP-Link DS1008X Omada 8-Port 10G Desktop/Rackmount Switch. From what I read, both are the same. The only difference is the warranty period and of course the price. TL-SX1008 is for the consumers. Hence, it comes with a shorter 3-year warranty, while the DS1008X is for businesses and hence comes with a 5-year warranty. Depending on the retailers, the price difference for both models ranges from S$100 to S$200.
I wanted a 10Gbps unmanaged switch to upgrade my house network to support 10Gbps speed. I intend to get the cheapest possible 10Gbps unmanaged switch I can find.
