Hmm, the chances of getting a single flow of more than 1gig to/from the =
"internet" is close to zero in a CPE situation. If the Connection is a =
service provider or similar sure, this limitation may well apply, but a =
home user (however high end), nope I just can't see it. If you need =
something capable of a single stream over 1G with 10G interfaces then =
really cost is going to have to be no object. If this is the case then =
something like a 600D will do the job -

Add any 10G switch you like off the second SFP+ port if you need 10G =
CPE, it's not likely to need to be an expensive one (EX3300?)

I've used the Mikrotik CCR's as high end CPE (with 10G uplink) very =
successfully as they offer excellent price/performance, but if that's no =
object then there are plenty of options.
