Yep sorry!! I was talking about the LAN, 10Gb fibre between the monster servers and "core" switch, then 1gb copper to the minis and most everything else. My Internet connection is 100Mb down and 7-10Mb up through a Charter (Spectrum?) commercial account, max residential around here is 60/5, but going "commercial' got me additional bandwidth and a static IP for only an extra $40/month. I've been threatening the wife about moving to the Chattanooga Tennessee area where they have 1Gb for the same price I'm paying for 100Mb.

I am jealous of the fiber, and I had considered it, but in the end didn't own any equipment for, nor have the necessary knowledge to do all the terminations. The extent of my fiber work has pretty much been to look at the end of a cable and say "yet, getting light through there" and plug it in. I can at least terminate and run Cat6#NotANetworkingExpert
Pretty much the same setup here, with the exception of the fibre, and it's only intra-cabinet in the bat cave. Totally not-needed, but all the gear was free when I built the new data center for the company I work for so why not?!?!
