    Sorry guys but from a technician who codes fiber optics for a manufacture daily i need to correct a few things:
     
    1. QSFP+ is 40G, if it's 100G it's QSFP28. (explanation below)
    2. (okay a bit picky one) you can get an SFP/QSFP/etc. converter directly to RJ45, as long as the port is run in Ethernet mode.
    3. running any longer runs than 5 meters is on a budget is way less expensive than 2400$, let me explain:
    AOC is a niece market therefore high pricing, normal installation for over 5 meters people us fiber optics. for example let's say you guys planned to do 10/40/100G over fiber in the whole office, you would most likely use SR optics (short range, often rated at op too 300 meters). for QSFP28 aka. 100G they each cost 100-150 usd at a third party manufacture. and then a fiber optic cable here lets say an MTP 20M cable which is 30-60 usd depending on where you get them. so a little above 250 usd if you bought the cheapest, would recommend going to another seller than the cheapest and get better quality but that's besides the point.  
    *SFP is 1,25G and SFP+ is 10G and SFP28 is 25G. QSFP+ is VERY roughly speaking 4 SFP+ strapped together therefor creating 40G, QSFP28 is then funny enough Quad SFP28 therefore 100G.
     
    btw if you guys ever need help sourcing any high end fiber optics or passive equipment for fiber networking, hit me up i might be able to give you a good deal
