The cheapest solution would be to get used SFP+ cards (got 2 for $40) get a 10 Gbp SFP+ switch. (LB6m used is the cheap solution $250) and get DAC ($20 at less then 10') or Transceivers and fiber ( $50 for 50' roughly)

 

10Gbp RJ45 hardware is expensive and I was surprised the TB3 to 10Gb was $300

We have to use tb3 due to hardware limitations with our Lenovo thinkpads

well that sucks.

I wish 10Gb was not such a big jump in cost.
