Our experience here is limited to using the GORE cables for both 10 GbE and XAUI. The iBOB and BEE2 seem to be particular about needing short cables. We use 1 meter cables on our iBOB to BEE links. longer cables seem to work with 10 GbE cards (myricom) and commercial switches (fujitsu). We bought our latest cables along with our latest myricom 10 GbE cards from bell electronics, a Myricom distributor. Hope this helps! John
