Unifi Dream Machine Pro vs CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS for 10 GBits

Question

Hey everyone,

I'm about to go for the 10 GBits Fiber 7 by the end of the month and I'm looking for hardware right now.

The dream machine looks good, but I realized that all the RJ45 ports are sharing a 1 GBits backplane, what is pretty disappointing. So I would need an additional 10GBit switch to get higher speeds.

The second option is the Mikrotik CCR2004-1G-12S+2XS, what seems to be supporting 10 GBits on the backplane. However, it has only SFP+ ports and higher, so I would need multiple SFP+ to RJ45 module that are at least 20 CHF per item with 1 GBits. I have at least 6 devices that have to be connected with RJ45, so that's minimum another 120 CHF just for the modules.

How did you solve that and what is your setup to get 10 GBits?

Thank you and best regards
