That upgrade is for the -RT only, not the standard unit. I suggested they provide four ports that would be standard GigE SFP ports that could be enabled for 10G SFP+ by license key in addition to the 2x10G expansion module. So if you had a unit with a capability of 6x10G and 12xGigE, it would be a killer little peering point switch in 1U of rack space.
