so","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":50.8,"end_s":55.719,"text":"and one of them didn't have one so I think they just come with one um so yeah","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":54.12,"end_s":60.76,"text":"10 GB per second switches are so expensive lonus why could it even

right","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":96.799,"end_s":103.96,"text":"so there's cat 6 cat 6A ones there's these SFP plus ones why am I excited","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":101.72,"end_s":109.68,"text":"about this because daisy chaining so they have two ports on them which means","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":107.079,"end_s":113.799,"text":"if you wanted to have sort of a a here I drew a little diagram where's my

while","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":115.96,"end_s":122.96,"text":"so this is my server with the quad gig","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":120.24,"end_s":127.399,"text":"Nick okay so server right there and then it's sort of one GB out to everywhere","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":124.759,"end_s":133.16,"text":"else from there then that server could also have one of these bad boys that I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":130.84,"end_s":138.0,"text":"then run regular cat 6 to two other computers a capture computer and a video","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":136.04,"end_s":144.48,"text":"editing computer so I'm going to show you guys why this is so exciting in just","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":141.16,"end_s":146.319,"text":"a moment sorry guys baby's sleeping but","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":144.48,"end_s":150.879,"text":"uh here's the config I'm using just for testing so there's one of the MX cards","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":149.16,"end_s":157.519,"text":"and I've got a direct attach copper cable running down to another mux card","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":154.56,"end_s":162.4,"text":"so that's a 10 gbit Nick here and that's my quad 1 GB Nick here so this machine","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":160.319,"end_s":167.959,"text":"right here will have to have some network configuration done to allow

be","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":187.04,"end_s":192.72,"text":"wrong about that one but uh here we go","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":191.0,"end_s":197.12,"text":"so guys right now everything's pretty ghetto I just have the two cards","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":195.84,"end_s":203.879,"text":"directly attached to each other so you can see it's working here 10

the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":203.879,"end_s":209.799,"text":"status of the connection there it is 10 gbit per second no internet access

need","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":211.879,"end_s":218.08,"text":"this couple things number one here check","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":215.959,"end_s":222.84,"text":"this

all over it but this is the oce 11102 NX this is a direct attach Copper 10 gbit per second Ethernet adapter so it has SFP plus connectors on it two ports PCI Express 4X I believe comes with a some stuff inside okay so what's special about these These are the least expensive 10 GB per second capable adapters that are out there well lonus why would you care about that because you know 10 GB per second switches are Uber expensive comes with a lowprofile adapter comes with two low profile adapters I think one of these ended up I I have a few of them so and one of them didn't have one so I think they just come with one um so yeah 10 GB per second switches are so expensive lonus why could it even matter to me the consumer that I can get a 10 gbit Ethernet card for under 300 bucks well the answer I would reply is daisy chaining these adapters and there are other ones too I actually got the wrong ones I didn't want the SFP plus ones it was my bad there's a different part number that can do 10 GB per second over cat 6 and Cat 6A which is just regular RJ 45 connect well sort of regular I think they've made some revisions but the point is much less expensive than directed attach copper cables which will run anywhere from about 50 to a couple hundred bucks depending on the length but they can go up to 40 ft and uh right so there's cat 6 cat 6A ones there's these SFP plus ones why am I excited about this because daisy chaining so they have two ports on them which means if you wanted to have sort of a a here I drew a little diagram where's my little diagram ah yes this is my

that's a 10 gbit Nick here and that's my quad 1 GB Nick here so this machine right here will have to have some network configuration done to allow this network to talk to this network so that these

be better any switch with an SFP Plus sorry about that any switch with an SFP plus uh set of connectors on it will work for direct attached copper as far as I can tell although I could be wrong about that one but uh here we go so guys right now everything's pretty ghetto I just have the two cards directly attached to each other so you can see it's working here 10 gabit per second uh if we go ahead and look at the status of the connection there it is 10 gbit per second no internet access cuz like I said they're just direct attached but check this out okay so why do I need this couple things number one here check this out Uber file. mov this is a 5 minute media file that is 36 gigs for video work you want to work with uncompressed whenever you can which means I want to capture uncompressed from the camera to my black magic card then I want to work with that uncompressed footage and that is very very bandwidth intensive we've tried to do it on gigabit it's not even close so

connection all right so the other thing about 10 gig is that you have to have the horses on the other side to take advantage of it so my storage server here with the Orica raid card whoops yeah you guys can't see that with the Orica raid card has eight Seagate 3 tbte drives in those bottom eight Bays so they are capable of producing up to 700 megabytes per second sustained reads and 500 megabytes per second sustained rights that's way more than gigabit gigabits only about 100 megabytes per second uh reads and wres so right so yes so the 10 GB per second connection wouldn't do me any good unless the storage on the other side was good enough to keep up with it so here I'm going to do a quick demo where I'm going to take a few video files let's say totaling about I don't know let's go for let's go for around five gigs here guys what do we got here yeah there we go 5.35 gigs and we're going to copy these to the desktop here check this out you guys are going to love this so you can see here it Peaks around 1.2 gab per second which is freaking unreal and then we start to be limited not by the this guy on the other side here cuz that was all like caching and memory and all that but we're limited actually by the right speeds of the SSD in the rendering machine which is here so guys what's exciting about this is that for about so each card is about 280 bucks on NC for these ulex cards whether you get the direct attach copper ones or the cat 6 cat 6 a ones which means you can build a three computer gabit 10 GB daisy chain for like 750 bucks plus cables so less than 1,000 bucks you can get these kinds of speeds now for a general consumer watching your Blu-ray rips yeah not that useful but if you don't want to spend several thousand on a switch invest in you know $700 cards plus you know $800 $700 SFP plus fiber modules blah blah blah and spend you know5 to 10 grand setting up a 10 gbit per second connection if you have a use for one whether it's for like pro
